Like an open door beckoning you to walk through I spent many an evening exploring in search of where they may lead. Narrow stairways of worn tile and stone ascend higher and higher. Each floor is a new discovery or a potential dead end.<br><br>Over the last few days I have been shooting film as well which has provided a welcome return to a different way of shooting, yet in the darkened stairwells and alleys of this evening landscape, a digital sensor rules the night.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1430,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":false,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[157],"tags":[53,623,563,624,44,622,179],"class_list":["post-1429","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dpg","tag-blackandwhite","tag-hcmc","tag-railing","tag-saigon","tag-shadows","tag-stiars","tag-vietnam","post_format-post-format-image"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
