Into the Twilight Zone (6th and 8th floors)
I thought about naming this image: Elevators to Heaven. I'm glad that I changed my mind.
Taken at 2121 Crystal Drive where the 2007 Artomatic Exhibit, a local art show with many diverse artists, was held in March - May 2007. Each year, this show is held in different locations in the DC area.
The building was undergoing transition. The art show was held on two floors, the sixth and the eighth. I thought the orange sheen/glow from the lobby wall and the floor reflection looked cool.
Location: Crystal City, VA, US

Lovely rich warmth, and a little spooky and art like with no people.

Oral Roberts used of have an office atop the 60+ story university-owned medical center in Tulsa. Reportedly to see Mr. Miracles, one had to ride an elevator to the top floor, whereupon the doors would open. You would still have to walk uphill on a relatively steep incline to get to Oral.
"Elevator to Heaven"

man, there's so much you can do with good old-fashioned symmetry and light!
i'd be delighted if you'd consider adding this (and anything else that fits the bill?) to my new pool, in fluorescent light.
