This week’s challenge is Descent. I had taken a picture of the Queen Victoria Building’s stairs earlier this year in April which I quite liked showing each stair level and the contrast between the tiles, the stairs and the railings. It is a building built in 1898 (see previous post on Sydney architecture for more detail). Again when I was in Sydney I took a few more photos and liked the contrast between the modern escalator in the QV building juxtaposed against the original architecture.
Here I have depicted the old and modern era of Descent in the QV building to take you from level to level.

wow – just elegant – I visited the building when we were performing in Sydney, is a late nineteenth-century building designed by the architect George McRae in the central business district of Sydney, Australia.

Thanks M, it is a lovely building and I think had been wonderfully restored to its original grandeur with a few modern twists 🙂
