DP. Weekly Photo Challenge – Ascend

Disc One

The Old Man of Stoer, Western Highlands

Can you spot the climber in red ascending the Sea Stack known as the Old Man of Stoer?

Geranium-Steps

Youlgreave, Derbyshire

Or perhaps a more leisurely ascent would be to you liking, climbing amongst the Geraniums to this Derbyshire Cottage Door.

The Quiraing, Isle of Skye

The winding ascent by  narrow road to the summit pass of the Quiraing may be more to taste

Jedburgh Abbey

Jedburgh Abbey, Scottish Borders  

Exploring upwards in the skeleton of an old Abbey gives a new perspective on these ancient ruins…and allows you to admire the skill and daring of those early stone masons.

Baltic-1-0395

The Hermitage, St. Petersburg, Russia

Nor should you be fooled by this garden….it is in fact the roof top garden created above a part of the famous Hermitage Art Galleries…to explore you do need to ascend.

Just a few suggestions that I hope add some variety to the interpretation of ASCEND the topic for this weeks Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge.
