grayscale photography of man

After skiing i wanted to deposit my skis in the skiroom. I have been in that room hundreds of times, but i never really noticed the round beam of light that came through the dome-like window in the roof. But on that day i thought: this would make a great photo. So i placed my camera on my backpack because i didn’t have a tripod and was all by myself. I set the self-timer and shot for about half an hour, having to get up after each photo to check how it turned out, until i was pleased with the result.
