This is a shot of our city hall and the Duck Pond surrounded by fresh greens of trees and the grass

Previously I have posted a shot looking across the Duck Pond at one of the local Churches, I took this shot from up on the Spire of the Church

Was not the best of days to climb up there the forecast had been for mid 70's when I arranged to meet the Deacon and go up there but

As is often known to happen two days later when the time came to go there the temperature was 95F.

Now with my lung issues, if I had any common sense I would have known climbing up inside a spire in those temperatures and high humidity was not a good idea.

But no I think to myself I can do this will be easy, boy was I wrong by the time I climbed a mix of stairs and ladders with my camera bag and got out on the spire I was feeling so light headed and struggling to breath

Luckily the deacon was a real nice guy and didn't mind waiting a few minutes for me to get my breath back, luckily there was a cool breeze up there which helped and I then managed to get a few shots

I will never climb up there again on a warm day and maybe never at all, so I must have a little common sense as I have learnt from this experience

I think if I ever want a shot from this angle I need to buy a drone :)

Here's another shot from up there

Nice shot @tattoodjay, good use of the water reflections 👍. Following you now.

Thanks and teturned the follow

Sony A6500 is the best one to take a photo. But it is depend on our skill as well. You did a good job!
Have a nice day.

Thanks
I think it is a great camera but one day I hope to upgrade to full frame

It is so great I could even feel the air in your shot ;))) Super green ;))) Up my friend ;)))

Thank you kindly :)

Call an ambulance and shoot while you wait ;)

I actually did consider that but luckily my breathing settle fairly quickly and the climb down was nice and slow

That's good! I always heard that walking down is more tiring that climbing up... what a bul** ;p It was always a pleasure to me :)

Yeah I feel the same down is easier

Plus I went down nice and slow

Oh I am sorry it was a stressful climb, but boy, was it ever worth it! I always say that as long as I am sitting in my chair I can conquer the world. It's only when the time comes to actually do it, then I realize that those days have passed. Upped and steemed.

Thanks I think it was worth it as well, just will be careful if I ever go up there again :)

Careful, that's a beautiful shot, but not worth hurting yourself.

Yes very true I have now learnt that I was a bit foolish at the time but hey it was a learning experience :)

those are some lovely views, what a great pond!

Thanks Kindly

Happy Friday

Really beautiful photographs. Love the second one @tattoodjay - try not to risk your life though !!

Thanks it was a good lesson to be sensible for sure
I won't do that again

And thanks
