Why should water and sunsets get all the attention? Beach stairs

Besides what I hope is a lively composition, the Art (metaphor) grabbed me.

I enjoy shooting the flora and fauna on and amongst the dunes.

Great shot.

Like it Bob. The footprints tell us it’s a well used stairway - but the condition of it says it’s not well maintained and will eventually become dangerous. That aside, it’s got loads of character, ideal for a bit of grungy pp and the greenery will enhance the whole. Well spotted. Just needs a beefy bloke or slinky lady mid-descent!

I like images that draw me in and invite my imagination to roam. In this juxtaposition of sand and wood I could imagine a confrontation between the "scoop"-shaped stairs and the dune sand before they both succumb to the elements.

Am I getting carried away here? Oh well, the image invited me to read it..... Thanks Bob!

You must be hearing the "roar" of the beach calling to you. You have your ear too close to the monitor.

The cut off right troubles me just a little bit otherwise I like the shot. It does what I like a photo to do--remind me of something. I know I have never been to those stairs but I have seen many just like them, in various states of disrepair, covered in sand with tracks leading to and away from them. Thanks for the memories.
