... round and round ...
in the Round Tower / Rundetårn (Copenhagen)
experimenting with motion blur some years back in 2018
This spiral ramp (there are no stairs) is rumoured to be a turned carriage ride for a former king, who allegedly went up there with a horse-drawn carriage to enjoy the view ; ))
But no: This design was chosen to allow a horse and carriage to reach the library of the tower, moving books in and out, as well as transporting heavy and sensitive instruments to the towertop which served as observatory of the University of Copenhagen until 1861
I thought this (older) photo might be fitting thematically with my last upload for Macro Mondays ; ))
