Fascinating both because of the symmetric beauty of the construction, and the practicality of the design in allowing locals to access varying levels of water in the well.
I remembered first seeing it in The Fall (one of my favorite movies, btw), and then again recently in The Dark Knight Rises.
Via Cliff Pickover's Reality Carnival.
The Fall is one of my favorites too.
ReplyDeleteDitto - I'm a fan of Tarsem's work. The Fall is one of my top 20 or so all-time favorites. These stairs really play well with the scene in which they're featured, too.
