The long and winding staircase leading me to ..... Kerrin?April Theme Day Yellow
Abc this week if brought to you by the letter K
Two themes in one again and blogger is being a pain. Something to do with meta tags on the code. Anyway. No daffodils, sunsets, or yellow houses. Wanted something a little obtuse on the eye. So here for your veiwing pleasure/discomfort the library/Town hall steps. Not really yellow a trick of the sunlight. No filters, no post production and no I can't spend all day telling you how to get this image. Blogger won't let me it's being a blue meanie.
Manx words again K is for Kerrin which is pane
It should really be pain, as it was a "pain in the neck to get this image." Just for fun though and a little optical enigma. Literally a library image. So use your illusion this April Fool's day and check out those other yellow perils or mellow yellows at........

Interesting yellow trick. You have it all today - Theme Day, ABC and an April Fool.
Happy Theme Day!
Greato to combo and you're right that blogger can be a pain which is why I moved to workpress and then found a way to move the posts easily too...
Now this one is a ripper.
like the perspective on this one. happy april fools day!
I never know when you are joshing. All the time. I like this. It is many layers.
:)
cool combo well captured!
Always so surprising - a really unusual shot for you. Amazing what the right camera setting and sunlight will do - when you know how to do it!
Gorgeous, interesting Yellow & K! congrats on getting 2 in 1.
Good result. Sometimes we just strike it lucky.

Great shots! and yours is always a fun blog to read!
I am a stranger looking for TT lodgings. I found you through Motorcyle Net on a recommendation. Stunning TT photographs. Any news on homestay would be appreciated. Excellent Isle of Man blog. I will be back. I'm 99,723.
I liked your phrase a blue meanie so I Googled the phrase and sure enough there was an entry on Wikipedia ... Also, as normal your photo is very impressive and to catch this much yellow via a trick of the sunlight.
Blue meanies, yellow submarine. I like this image it is different to your nature images, harder edged.
A little contorting of the torso to get this shot! 266 more to 100K.
I like it.. I really like it.. good choice for the Yellow and the "K"..
KKKKKeep it up.. :-)
Very clever combination of themes.
Even if I didn't love staircases (and photograph them every chance I get) I would love this photo. The deeper yellow radiates warmth, and yet, there's an element of danger with that staircase winding its way skyward.
Good tension.
I love this staircase!!
The angle is quite unique of its own too...makes me pay more attention to it....
Happy Theme Day!!
WOW, love that pop of yellow today B. My entry is pretty predictable but I was counting on you to kick it outta da park!

i like it very much, its striking, nice one for theme day (i'm a whole day behind though)
i'm giving you the Kreativ blogger award. Congrats and happy theme day!
I should think the long and winding yellow staircase must lead to Dorothy's yellow brick road -:)
In case I'm being too obscure, I refer to the Wizard of Oz.
perfect for theme day. how did you find it?
A magical photo! Just perfect for the day! :D
What a beautiful colour to paint the walls. I really like the colour yellow...it's welcoming.
I'm glad I read the post. Interesting.
Fascinting picture, your right not your typical spring yellow picture! Love it.
You are always very personal and individual,a real artist :)
And very interesting writing too, thank you!
Nice one.
Love the angles and yellow that leads us on - and two themes covered as well. Well done.
This one gave me a smile. Congratulations on so many visitors. That's amazing.
bel angle de vue, et puis tout ce jaune dans ce bâtiment, c'est impressionnant (pas besoin de soleil ;o) ).
nice angle, and then everything in that yellow building is impressive (no need of sun ;o)).
Although there is a lot of metal and concrete in this picture, the colour makes it feel really nice and warm and sunny. You clever girl!
Almost 100.000 visitors! Wow!
(and I'm truly honoured to share your sense of humour. Aren't we lovely? hehe)
Realy spesial photho with the metal and the yellow. Have a fun abc:)
You packed a lot of pleasing mellow yellow into this angle, Babooshka. Congrats on the ten grand marker. Wow!
Well the post certainly wasn't a pain :-)
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh! Tension mounts! Get down tension!
Dxx 2 months to go!
Lovely YELLOW staircase, indeed!
A new word a day - that is not bad. Kerrin has celtic sound in my ears, but the may be full of wax.
PS Thank you dor the comment - I think you'll find that a summer in Kristiansand can match many places in the UK!
You too did a double (actually I did a triple...) with a Yellow and K posting! VerPlease check my blog today--I am so proud--Bibi made the headlines.y nice yummy yellow stairs.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I am so proud thatBibi made the headlines.
And I am visitor # 99817
Today I am visitor 099811.
I love the yellow staircase. It almost makes me dizzy just looking at it! Happy theme day.
K is my letter, my husband's too. I adore stair cases and you've captured a great one for our theme day. Your friend Kim, otherwise known as #99818! Keep going, B.!
Nice and bright.
Guess what. This just reminds me I'm living in the yellow house. Yes, my house is painted low scene special effect yellow which is called Tuscan and some white particle in the formula. It was completely out of my mind...
You clever girl! And what a shot. It's spectacular.
A very inventive and inspirational shot. Fun to see.
Very nice. Great capture.
A great study in perspective!
I love the composition and the structure you found for this photo.
Great !!!

Nice choice and I love that photo.
Tyra
Neat! Love the angles!
Love the lines, and YELLOW!
you know what they say - no pane, no gain.
of course I had to regale you with a bad pun. it's my job as an April Fool.
Beautiful yellow staircase and i just love it. Looks bright.
Does the yellow cast have anything to do with the fluorescent light? It really does look like it's painted yellow! Congrats on your 100,000th visitor - wow!
What a stunning piece of architecture :)
Cool shot, even if it is a bit disorienting at first. According to the hit counter I'm 99,895. But I suppose I could keep refreshing the page until I got to 100K.
You have all angles covered here; an interesting perspective on K 'and' yellow.
Very nice shot! It's a pretty yellow too!
99904 is my visitor number .Great angle of view.
I suppose that April fool is , in French, 1er avril !
For some reason, the first thought when I saw the photo was about 'Famous Five'... and then that almost-Kirrin word!
Beautiful shot!
You always do such amazing things with the very ordinary.
a great shot for this theme day
I like the angle you took of this nice staircase! I can't imagine doing 2 themes at once. Yellow was hard enough.
Great yellow color, and I like the new word for pain/pane.
Oooh, I like the yellow picture - but I love the Manx words! They sound so quaint! I hope that isn't insulting to the Manx people, it's not meant to be.
I just love words.
The yellow brick road leading to the long winding yellow staircase...
I am not the 100.000 unfortunately!!!
I am close but no cigar. Spooky spiralling image.
LOVE the yellow staircase. Nice one!
A very interesting "K" Babooshka. Intriguing photo.
Still another 25 to go.....
It's a delight, Babooshka, however you did it.
IT's ME!!! I won. 100,000. Congratulations Ms Popular!
Oh Mo, I'm so glad. You got to have a prize.
Hi Babooshka, you are insanely popular and I see why! This staircase is eye popping and you are quite the photographer if it is really not yellow!
Fantastic! If you didn't say so, I really would've thought the stairwell was yellow! Great theme day post!
Help I've fallen down the 'yellow' staircase. LOL MB
Great composition, Babooshka! Love the twisted angle.
