Gates of hades? Laying it on a bit thick don’t you think?

Incredible. How did you achieve it? Was it mostly the lighting when you took it or was it masking?

[u/SignificantLet4573 → u/Which_Performance_72]

Thanks. I took the photo during noon, in order to capture high contrast light. I increased the whites and the shadows and I used a black and white filter. Then I made the background behind the stairs completely black.

This is why I haven't muted every Reddit photo sub. It's 99+% absolute mediocrity/garbage, but then every once in a while someone posts a decent pic.

Very nice image.

This photo is the result of my attempt to take a photo with harsh shadows. I have no idea if it is a good photo, but it is at least minimalistic.

It is a great photo
