Passages Above Open Water

Sunlit structure gives way to a dim doorway window and a bright wall-mounted telephone with a hard-edged shadow.

Painted stairs and railings above the ocean lead to a shadowed doorway window and end at a wall-mounted emergency telephone.

The sequence narrows from an open sunlit stairway to an enclosed round window, then isolates a yellow telephone and its sharp cast shadow.
