Very nice, Atgets.

Beautifly aligned symmetry in the last ones.

Thanks for sharing,

Thanks! There is much to be seen, just by looking up!

It's also as Yildiz said, it's all about the symmetry. Something that always fascinates me.

Very intricate workmanship on the ribbed arches of the vaults, Atgets.

Impressive...pretty dizzying experience having to look up all the way to see this beautiful web of arches. : ) No pain, no gain, I suppose.

Thanks for sharing,

Everyone has shown wonderful domes, ceilings and chandeliers, and I am really enjoying this thread! Thank you to all those who have contributed and commented!

A nice dome for sure, Sury. :)

Maybe I'm the only one but the photo is rather blurry for some reason, at least to my eyes.

Nice looking roof Sury (but +1 on the fuzzy-ness ;) ).

Great shapes on that last one AA - love the circles and the light coming through the roof.

Foreground is indeed out of focus, Yildiz. I was trying to get the dome
and did not realize the situation. A similar situation with this one too.

Great captures Graeme, I like the first one for a more dramatic look.
You are giving me a pain in the neck and elsewhere. :D Now I started
walking with my head tilted up and tripping all over. :lol:
