Kim,

I really like the orange door shot too. It was a tough picture to take. The landing she is on is about a four foot square and the stairs are unbelievably scary. They are cement and have an exceptionally narrow tread and are VERY steeply sloped and go a distance of about 15 feet between floors. Not a stairway used very often. I had to just hold onto the camera, lean against the wall and hope I didn't go tumbling down. My daughter picked this location and loved the door. She is an artist and very creative. It really fit her personality.

That's probably the best I'll get as far as the distance and distortion is concerned unless you have any suggestions- a harness and hanging from the ceiling maybe. I did alot of mural work on the first floor of this building for Harley Davidson on scaffolding and even a fork lift and the owner was always threatening to dangle me from the ceiling.

Do you think it would help if I just added more background?

Here is a picture of Sarah with one of her pastels and a few other shots we did for her senior pix.
