Well damn, I was coming back to fave that awesome shot with the red and black rug thing, chocolate cat and stunningly posed woman (aren't they all, ha ha?) but it's vanished.

So I'll do this one instead, compensatorily, but also because beautiful girls reading good books rock.

The perspective heading up the stairs is tremendous. I like how the eye is led to the back by the rails, but we are stopped to look at the model. Brilliant and some great lighting on the high contrast shot.
