Walkway to Heaven

I was able to capture this today during my lunch break. Shot in infrared using Pentax K100D, 18-55mm kit lens, Hoya R72 IR filter.

It's definitely interesting, but something about the lighting or whatever makes me feel like the shot is tilted, even though I don't think it actually is. Very interesting shot all the same. Nice capture.

The sky and the shadow from the railing makes it look tilted. But its straight as an arrow. Nice capture.

I like the ethereal feeling you're trying to project, but the more I look at the image, the more I am dissapointed. The blurred subject appears to be on the walkway to Heaven until I noticed the downward angle of the handrails in the distance. This, for me, gives the opposite impression as if he will eventually be descending to the gates of Hell.

Perhaps had you been at a much lower POV and shooting up, this may have been avoided. I don't know, just a thought.
