This is a great example of good timing, forethought, and the ability to recognise shapes and patterns in your scene. The result of a harsh midday sun, the shadows of the straight handrail poles are bent into perfect zigzag lines that look like they’ve been painted on the steps below. The addition of a passer-by gives this shot context, as without him it could be difficult to tell that this shot is of a handrail on steps outside. The direction that he’s walking in makes our eyes move along the handrail and up towards the top of the frame. Nikon D5300, 50mm f/1.8, 1/1600 sec, f/4, ISO100
