Thematic Photographic 152: Vertical

I  loved this theme - it sent me trawling through so many of my photo albums, and 
brought back many happy memories.
Don't forget, the shots look better if you click to enlarge them. 
Visit Carmi at Written Inc. to take part and see other verticalities.

So, here we go:
poles strategically placed so that kiwifruit vines will climb up them

the old pumphouse from the goldmine at Waihi, New Zealand

some of the many spires on La Sagrada Familia cathedral, Barcelona

columns at Corinth

and columns at Delphi

and MORE columns, this time at Pompeii

lovely spires here: the Duomo, Milan

one of the most beautiful buildings I've ever seen: the Blue Mosque in Istanbul

the beautiful facade of the library at Ephesus

finally, the flagpoles ready for the annual ANZAC ceremony at Gallipoli
