Sculpture on top of the beautiful barroque post office in Valencia, displaying three angels of the apparently faithful, efficient and secure post delivery and a spiral stairway by their side which might be their shortcut to heaven?! :D
Η λήψη έγινε εστιάζοντας τον φακό προς τα πάνω απ' το μπλε φιμέ τζάμι του καμπαναριού. Τα σκαλιά και ο εσωτερικός χώρος μόλις που διακρίνονται . Αντίθετα στην εικόνα δεσπόζουν τα στοιχεία του εξωτερικού χώρου δηλαδή ο ουρανός, τα σύννεφα και η κυρίως εκκλησία που όλα μαζί συνθέτουν μια βιβλική εικόνα.. σημαδιακή ίσως !!

Focusing the lens upwards from the blue tinted glass of the bell tower.
The stairs and the interior are barely visible.
Instead the image is dominated by the outdoor elements i.e. sky, clouds and the main church which together form a biblical picture .. Perhaps with a different significance. Stairway to heaven?
Hmm, I always thought that heaven was that white light at the end of the tunnel. If this to heaven, why is there a RED light at the end? Uh oh, I think I got on the wrong one!
Here's one of the escalators that leads out of our Inter-planetary Bus Terminal, aka Pioneer Square Bus Tunnel. I had fun processing this to make it look a lot more dramatic than it really is. I'm hoping a lot of people will see the thumbnail, and be like "Oooh!!! What's that?!?!?" and then click on it and be like "Oh, it's just an escalator".
The title was taken, of course, from the song of the same name by the popular band Led Dirigible. :)

A stairway —seemingly ascending to Heaven— at sunset. It is located on Mt. Olympus, the gods’ residence, close to the place where Helicōn river (aka Ourlias) sinks itself below ground.
Legend has it that the maenads had first murdered Orpheus, then attempted to wash his blood off their hands in Helicon river’s waters. The river disappeared into a cleft in order to avoid getting tainted with the spilt blood and cleansing manslaughter.
Maenads were raving women who worshipped the god of wine, Dionysus, by roaming the mountains in a state of religious frenzy or ecstasy, as if possessed by the god.

hard times again... always busy...
catch up later... maybe...

I’m not really happy about that shot...
always in a hurry, always too many people (and me too for the others)...
I know that I need to return back to London...

I spent 7 nights and 8 days in London in August with my family, Tiziano and Giulia and their families.
I’m trying to show 100 shots that I’ve made there, that represent my “London point of view”.

Grazie per tutti i gentili commenti alle mie ultime foto…
Am Vizinalbahnradweg in der Tirschenreuther Teichpfanne zwischen Wiesau und Tirschenreuth steht die Himmelsleiter, eine innovative Aussichtsplattform, entworfen vom Architekten Peter Brückner. Von dort hat man einen gigantischen Panoramablick in die Weite der oberpfälzer Landschaft, aber auch nach untern auf den Radweg.
Thousands of Flickr photos involving steps, staircases, stairwells etc. have been named after an irritatingly popular, legendary (and unspeakably good) song by a popular band that I am not allowed to mention but will only hint that the name starts with 'Z-' and ends with '-eppelin'...
I just wanted to say that this is not one of those :)

Continuing with the music theme (thank you TOTW!), I was inspired by Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven.
What a classic song from my High School days. *Shudder* brings back some really mixed memories.
Hey - I spent much of the day cleaning out my closet. I am getting rid of five huge bags of clothes! Yippee! As my reward...next week I get to go shopping!
Well, gotta run, have a big kids sports weekend coming up and need to pack some gear.
