As I reflect on this image I realize that this actually was my first of the lines and rhythm series. There has been more than one person that asked if I was a musician when they saw the images from this series. I had to settle on this odd aspect ratio in order to get this composition. Notice that the handrail leads your eye to the art deco shadow falling exactly 1/3 of the way down from the top of the image which, as you know, is a very powerful focal point of composition.

There is no way to get the composition right for this image other than the way I cropped it.
