Enlightenment 3

stunning and beautifully clean photo; looks as if it were 3D rendered, but not so much that it looks fake.  this photo, 3, i think is the strongest.  the view works marvelously; in large part because of golden ratio, and in 3 almost all lights have a dark background; in 2 and 1 that is not the case.  in 2, the blue handrail is too much in view and that is not as eye-catching as lights.  in 2, the colors are colder / less vibrant / unappealing.  in 2, the windows on lower floor break the pattern.  in 1, the platform to left is much more red and brighter than all other steps; breaking pattern.  in 1, the top light is barely visable because of white background.  in 1, the handrail in top left corner is simply 'there' and distracts rather than adds to view.  i like the brighter tone in 1; makes me wonder if that tone applied to 3 would make 3 slightly more appealing.  i also like the added floors extending the spiral view in 1 and wonder if another floor in 3 would do the same.
