As someone who can't even go up a ladder, this is my idea of a nightmare job.

  2. Hello,
    We cannot stand heights either but they are tremendous views which you capture here. The blues of roofs, sea, sky and hills melt together beautifully.

  3. It did make me wonder how they did it before the invention of cranes.

  4. B to B, Because this is Turkey, I'd be willing to bet that the guy wasn't wearing any safety equipment. The mosque looks beautiful though.

  5. Does this mean you are going get woken up by somebody singing at early hours in the morning just down the road? Beautiful colours :-)

    1. We already have mosques very close by - this new "mega mosque" is being built in the centre of Bodrum peninsula. I had to stop and take photos as I'd never seen the crescent being put on top of the minaret before.

  6. Arggh, the stuff of nightmares, but such a lovely photo nonetheless. I almost get dizzy standing on a chair.

  8. Really loved the turquise blue minaret top - but yes, I'd never dare to climb either!:)
