A couple more shots taken in Glastonbury.

Looking straight upwards in part of the Glastonbury Abbey ruins.

Chlorophyllum Molybdites

Salisbury Cathedral, Salisbury, Wiltshire, England.

Prints of this photo are available for sale at my RedBubble store.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

Despite taking an SP every day for two and a half years, I'm not entirely comfortable with the truly straight-up SP.

It requires a million shots to find one I'm halfway satisfied with. I really like this one, though!

WTC - Straight Up. Shot in 1992 with nikon n6006, image scanned. Probably the south tower.

Finally.

It's been a hectic week. Added to the hustle and bustle, I picked up the inlaws at the airport at midnight last night, didn't sleep well and then drove them home to the Cape and came back this morning. Straight up? I'm tired, but totally cool with it. It's the good tired.

(But not half as tired as the Husband who has been working 10 hours days but with an added nasty cough and no sleep, poor dude.)

Here is the sepia version of this shot. It's a very subtle sepia. Didn't want to overdo it. I prefer it over the straightup b&w version.

I was very pleased with how this shot came out...as well as the session in general. My first maternity session.

This is the interior of the building seen in the previous photo. The tower is four floors high, and each floor has a hole in the middle enabling you to look up or down. Here a little girl was looking down through the hole while her father tried to take a photo.

Straight up, from the center. Cool building!

Today would have been my grandma's 85th birthday - I just *know* she's hogging all that cake and ice cream up in Heaven - chocolate, of course! :D

And you'll be happy that I waited until I got all the way home to take this picture. I thought it best not to hang my head out of the car while driving home today. It's freezing out there! :D

Thunderbirds 5 Straight Up With Contrails. Ocean City Air Show 2014. Ocean City, Maryland. Photography by Donna Corless.

I had a real hard time taking this photo. Trying to stand with your phone pointed straight up over your face, at a spinning ceiling fan (going fast because it's frikkin' hot) and centering it so that you're directly underneath...

I almost lost my balance, quite honestly. ;) I wasn't able to center it in-frame, obviously, but I like it a bit offset anyway. :)

Cedar Point, Ohio! This rollercoaster goes straight up and straight down. I love rollercoasters and all but I wasn't going to ride this...

Unlike earlier today, when it poured... along with awesome bolts of lightning streaking across the sky.

Which I completely and utterly failed to capture, as I was driving at the time.

looking up from beneath one of the turbines at Kelburn wind farm. I expected them to be noisier but the wind was not that strong

The roof of St. John's, in the West End of Princes Street, Edinburgh, is covered in these. It's a beautiful church.

For those days when you can't decide if you need an upper or a downer, or maybe both.

Instead of a ribbon cutting, Knox College holds a ceremonial "unplugging" to dedicate the first solar power project on campus at Wilson House.

This was a nigh-impenetrable karaoke system; without Alex guiding me through the basics (and periodically reminding me of them) it would have been hopeless. But I do love this selection of songs! Where else do you find "Strange Currencies" and "Stupid Cupid" side by side?

Thanks to J - McCain I am no longer fighting it, now I embrace the "Maverick" persona.

You better watch out!

I was lying in the grass among the approach lighting when I took this. Aircraft is on short final for Runway 24R at Los Angeles.

Straight up, back to the wall portrait.

As advised by @Pony Rojo/ Generator Photography, a square crop.

now tell me is it gonna be you & me 4 evah? Oh, oh, oh, or are you just having fun????

I wonder what they're eyeing-up...

The brain-bending trompe l'oeil ceiling fresco in Chiesa del Gesù, old Jewish ghetto district, Rome. The fresco was painted by Giovanni Battista Gaulli. Even standing right there underneath it and looking at it with your own eyes, it's impossible to tell what's real sculpted detail and what's painted.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

Just a simple straight up SP for today.
