Description This is a photo from the stairs leading down to Olafur Eliasson's 'The Weather Project', in the Tate Modern, in London.

The quality of the photo isnt good at all, but people say it is a good photo nontheless, so here it is.

Feels like what I'd envisage a rock concert as. Not that I've ever been to one.

You've used the bright colours extremely well, adding a lot to the picture.

whenever the sun glows like that, I always feel like it was especially made for me to see at that exact moment... might sound corney but, i get all warm and cozy inside... imagine that? one of the most simplest things in life, maybe even one that we take for granted, creating such an impact all at the same time...ha if that makes sense...

well nice shot is what i guess i wanted to say!

Oh wow. Great composition. I adore the light streaming down from the top of the stairs. It's like walking up to heaven (or erm.. spaceship). Definately the best photo I've seen of the subject.

Well done, angel of mine...

Rest assured that even if the picture didn't come out with all your expectations, it's still a very special one.

The atmosphere of the picture is very powerful James, really.
Beyond the eye catching it has feelings.

I love the void space behind the persons, those empty steps...as if we are witnessing the last passengers to a world of mystery...unknown...and we hold our breath not out of fright but as in a final goodbye to anonymous silhouettes...

The glowing light despite of it's " strenght" has a very soft and healing attraction.

These are some of the things I feel, looking at this picture... of course it's just me... I may be absolutely out of line here...

but I love it

It looks like it might be a casual glimpse at the moments right after a sort of explosion going off :\

I'd love to see the weather installation. How was it? From the pictures on the site, it looks like it would be an interesting experience.

I don't know why you don't like it ... it looks rather apocalyptic. Which is cool.
