The Disorienting Beauty of Spiral Staircases in Old Abandoned Buildings

Mark Cook shared with you:   The Disorienting Beauty of Spiral Staircases in Old Abandoned Buildings petapixel.com - Christian Richter is a fine art architecture photographer based in the small town of Jeßnitz, Germany. A fan of exploring old, abandoned buildings, Richter has often come across tall spiral staircases that look both beautiful and disorienting when viewed from the very top looking down. These staircases form a photo series of his that is aptly titled, "Abandoned Staircases." Richter tells us that he grew up in East Germany. After the reunification of Germany, many large buildings ended up being abandoned in Richter's part of the country. He began exploring these structures for fun and then began to focus on them years later when he entered the world of photography. Available on the App Store.
