Looks like an Escher conundrum. Beautiful technical quality. How did you do it?

What an interesting photo! I like everything about it.
The composition, the B&W treatment and the effect.
Well done!

Thanks Guys

Matt - basically I decided to give myself one hour with one lens and one focal length (the 15mm fisheye) to do some something in the QVB

I came back with some stuff and in processing I ended up liking a monochrome look so I converted a number of images with a similar processing look and have about 5 images I like in a set (including this one)

NB: for this one I was waiting for the right person to appear in that nice pool of light on the stairs and when this child ran up with the right toned clothes it was the one

The child is difficult to see. I would love to see a version where the child is in colour....everything else B&W.
