TITLE: Spiral Stairs

Museums and art galleries around the world often have outstanding architectural and decorative designs. The Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) in Canada has such a beautiful spiral staircase that spirals from the second floor to the fifth floor. It is decorated with wood, with graceful curves and elegant colors, and is a masterpiece of architectural art in itself.

AUTHOR: Zhenhuan Zhou (Canada)

As a photographer, I'm based in Toronto Canada.
My connection to the camera began from a very young age. There were days when I would capture the world around my tirelessly, but adulthood and professional responsibilities meant my passion took a backseat.
However, 2013 marked a significant year for me. Upon relocating to Canada, I rediscovered the world of photography, albeit initially during family trips. It wasn’t until 2019 that I embarked on a more structured journey into the realm of photography, diving deeply into post-processing techniques.
The COVID-19 pandemic, despite its many challenges, presented me with a silver lining. The ample time at my disposal allowed for rigorous study and practice. Over these years, I fine-tuned my skills and honed my craft.
Such dedication and perseverance bore fruit, and I found recognition in several renowned international photography contests. My work has been acclaimed in a plethora of categories, spanning from motion to monochrome, and has clinched top spots in numerous contests.
