Spiral staircase trajectory - a photo on Flickriver

Spiral staircase trajectory

            I was taken by the sci fi qualities of this.  It's a spiral staircase in the jewellry gelleries at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.  The rooms are kept dark and cabinets lit to show the collection in its best light.  Instead I was attracted by the staircase and took this shot looking straight up the spiral as the woman told me that I shouldn't be using a camera in that room (I'd missed the sign)
