Stairway to Heaven?

DSCN5373_edited-1

(Jacob) had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven… (Genesis 28:17)

No, I’m afraid this one doesn’t go all that far. It is quite high though. It is a footbridge over a railway:

Jacob's Ladder! Perfect for this Stariway To Heaven post! I don't think I'd have gonbe up, afraid of heights and all that, but it makes a great post with you going up. But here's my question. It looks like it goes to nowhere?? Fascinating.

Ginny - it does go down on the other side! LOL That was really the only reason for me to go up - it is a shortcut to where I wanted to go. I don't like heights either... If this had been one of those "see-through" stairs, I would not go up! But because it is solid, from the dizzyness aspect I'm okay with it. This was the first time since autumn that I climbed it though... and twice, since I also had to go back... My legs were quite shaky afterwards!

As usual, this photo fascinated me. We have a TON of those walkways in my neck of the woods, but they are all metal. I'd never even considered that some might be made of wood.

Very cool. And more authentic, somehow...

DawnTreader's Picture Book

For this blog, I have chosen a template that allows me to show pictures as big as possible . Some of the things you usually find in the sidebar, you will find here at the bottom of the page instead - Blog Archive, Followers etc.







My camera is a Nikon Coolpix 4600.
For basic editing of most photos and collages I use Picasa 3.
Sometimes I also experiment with some more "artistic" effects in Photoshop Elements or Paint Shop Pro.
