The elevator in this panorama is the one in our apartment building, and this is actually the first time in three years that I've used it!
You see, we live on the first floor and have our own entrance from the side of the building as you can see in my panorama for the Wrinkle Tribute earlier this year.
This elevator is quite busy during the day, and I wouldn't have had enough time to hog the elevator for this shoot during daytime, so I waited until the wee early hours in the morning to take it.
I'm wondering what the guy that checks the CCTV monitors was thinking when he saw my strange antics in the elevator... but then again, he might have been sleeping.
