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 ; ))

I thought this (older) photo might be fitting thematically with my last upload for Macro Mondays ; ))
A view down the interior of The Pilgrim Monument, Provincetown (Cape Cod). The person (one level down, at 1:00 o'clock) gives this a kind of Escher effect.

From the wikipedia article...
The Pilgrim Monument in Provincetown, Massachusetts was built between 1907 and 1910 to commemorate the first landfall of the Pilgrims in 1620 and the signing in Provincetown Harbor of the Mayflower Compact. This 252-foot (76,80 m) tall campanile is the tallest all-granite structure in the United States, and is part of the Provincetown historic district.
