I was really excited to be paired with the talented Bronwen Hyde this week. Bronwen also chose the themes as well. This week's theme was the title of a Michael Nyman composition "Up Stairs". Not being familiar with this particular piece of music I had a listen and found it quite interesting that while listening to it I felt like descending instead of ascending as the title refers.

I think that Bronwen's photo and mine work quite well together as her image shows a reluctance to get to the top of the stairs through her crawling, while mine shows a rush to get to the bottom of the stairs.

The divine diptych project is a collaboration between 37 photographers some of whom pair up every week and in each pair take a photo each on the same theme. You can see more of the project here: Divine Diptych Project
