Description
Rouchgly 120m above the ground level is this view: the path leading to the top of the highest church tower of the world! Located in Ulm, the architecture of the supporting archs resembles that of spider's legs, which adds to the impressive height! In the middle are the final stairs located, wo which you can go up a further 20-30 meters and get an amazing view over the city... and from a point in the top of the church-tower... that down on the ground seemed to be slightly larger than a dot!Cropping made as the developing yielded some unexisting reflections on the side. The un-touched picture can be found in the scraps!
Update: further (perfect) cropping and frame thanks to

Yep, you have a lots of cool photos, but this one is absolutely my favourite.
The picture is so full of everyting but still very clear. The colours are magnificent too.
You took this picture just from a nice spot. The architecture just fits and makes this look very 3-dimensional, if you know what I mean
BTW: Is there a smiley in the window or are my eyes just playing some tricks on me?

Thank you for taking the time to go through my gallery! I am really glad to have written to you about "catching" your visit!
And.. i think I do see that smiley in the window too and I don't really know what that is! Maybe some subliminal message?

Faszinierendes Gebilde - und der ungewΓΆhnliche Winkel macht es noch eindrucksvoller. Der Crop ist auch gut gewΓ€hlt, nicht nur um die stΓΆrenden Fehler wegzukriegen, wirkt auch so besser, konzentrierter und der Blick wird besser auf das Wesentliche gelenkt. Gut gemacht!

Danke schΓΆn!
Hoffe mal wieder Bilder von Dir zu sehen: die sind echt gut und man sollte an den Fehler der anderen, den eigenen SpaΓ nicht verlieren!

Yup, war schon mal oben. Einmal vor Jahren mit der Schule und ein zweites Mal vor nicht allzu langer Zeit. Wurde (und wird glaub ich immer noch) aber grade renoviert, und man durfte nicht aufs Dach hinaus, also Aussicht nur durch Fensterglas und GitterstΓ€be... Aber es gibt dort keine so tollen Perspektiven wie das, was du in Ulm aufgenommen hast.

i saw this one earlier but forgot to leave a comment!
so here it is:
this is really cool! The structure looks so thin in your "Outside Ulm" photo, but here it looks massive!

hey! Nice to read again from you! (checked your page, but nothing new thus far: busy? 
Yes, the overexposure in the "outside ulm" doesn't help the structure, but that one is also quite far away from the church (at least 300m away i would have to guess, probably more!), so that also puts into perspective the hugeness of the structure when up close (as in this one!
See you around (and upload some!

Another? That means I have to find the first one, for the guy I thought was B. Marley ended up being someone else!

my friends keep asking me to draw marley for them!

Wow, excellent shot I love the angle and composition, the cropping, whoever it's been done by really adds to the image's impact, as does the slightly grainy image and the perfect focal range used from the looks of it. Bravo.

You want to know something: I was almost certain that I was going to bring this one for monday!
Thanks, this photo was taken on an analog film and then scanned (the grain) and I had initially cropped it but it didn't turn out that impacting, until ~Simbelmine say she could do it, and when I got it back, I was literaly shocked by how it looked! (and I took the original photo!

Hehe roger that. Unforunatly,I've just realised that I wont actually be able to make the Thumbhour on Monday

This is now recommended for a Daily Deviation feature.

Awww, that is really very kind of you!!!!
I once suggested one, but it didn't get chosen... i think I should also do that more often though! I think that not too many ppl do it, and there are really so many deserving ppl out there!
thanks again!
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I've suggested quite a few, even though I've been so disgusted with the things they feature on there (mostly nudes). I'd like to make people's day as much as is in my power though! Good luck, I hope it gets chosen.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well.. i guess it will not be chosen, but it really is not so important! Makes one more hungry!

Hehe....oh well! At least I tried. You're welcome.

Wow.....can't believe it. Such an awesome picture .... Honestly, this has me in awe! The fact that it's so high up makes it even neater. I really like the angle portrayed here and it doesn't seem like a better job of the framing could have been done. It's technical and gorgeous, I love it. Nice, very nice work!

WoW!!!! U photographed this??? How come it only has 3 
Still, it looks to me as it's a drawing! Dunno why...
π: 0 β©: 1
I guess I am wondering that too!!!!
Nope, thus far not many people have seen it I guess... a friend helped me with the frame (~Simbelmine check her out if you like real amazing manips!), and it was only after the framing that it got 2 more
I thank you very kindly for your reviews! I am sure that i will visit your gallery down the line again and comment again!

Merci! (almost wrote "mercy"

We're almost as amazing as termites and bees... such architecture from such beings.
π: 0 β©: 1
I really admire the bees: those hexagons are so original, perfect... unbelievable! I haven't seen the termite-architecture, but I think they specialize in tunnels, don't they? There was this museum I was in and they stated that most of the architecture that we now consider amazing or suberb (from mankind that is), is nature based!

Makes one wonder who's really the more intelligent, doesn't it? Bees can even flow their DNA to reverse or speed up aging when their hive is damaged and they need particular types of bees replenished. Amazing world. Much to learn.

Wow, you really know a lot about it!
fortunately, we will always have nature to amazed ourselves!

I have been told I'm smarter than the average blonde. i'm not sure how smart that is though...
π: 0 β©: 1
Hello Marie,
are you a subscriber again?
You wrote to me in the last message about being smarter than the average blonde... well, I have to say that that is just a cliche about blondes being ... ehmm.. not intelligent... After all, Sweden and Norway for example are quite industrialized and first-world countries!
π: 0 β©: 1
nope - just a brief free-bie from deviant.
yeah - i have a certain intelligence. ditzy is fun too though.

You always manage to get the most amazing shots!

Awww, thanks!
One thing I noticed is that we (at least I) don't look up enough when being at places! When in a city, one usually just sees the first floor of buildings! And then... when one looks at panoramic photos, one is amazed at what there was above!
π: 0 β©: 1
I am the same way. I am always drawn though to the pictures from the base of trees and stuff looking up, but when I have a camera in my hand I don't think to take those kinds of shots. I am glad to have yours to look at though!

Well, we make a good team there then: for I usually take the photo and forget to look at it live!

I think we must make a pretty good team then!

I like this version better tho
π: 0 β©: 1
That is a real good point! I had not thought about that... funny story about it is that it was until I saw the pic after I went there, that I noticed all the "legs"! When I shot it, I was just "wow-ing!" the view, but couldn't really discern what created the drama! (and I wanted to get to the top!
