Or a million and one! I'm not frightened of heights - happy to be on a roof, or scaffolding, or an exposed ledge/ridge on a hill, but that's a different ballgame altogether.
I love the way those stems are twirling round the other ones @Liriodendron .
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I never used to have any fear of heights at all. As kids we went to the local castles and had great fun tearing around everywhere - up turrets, down turrets - grand. In the days when 'elf and safety meant wearing wellies in the rain..and in summer just in case.
Looking back, I think my fear started when we had kids - carrying one around at Wookey Hole while he tried to lever himself away from my body with his legs (as kids do) - and then both my kids (a bit older) haring around Lewes castle and up and down turrets. Now I can't get on a two rung step ladder without having a nosebleed - and get sweaty palms just watching Sam and Gollum sleeping on a mountain ledge....
Oddly, I can get in a plane and fly though - that doesn't worry me at all - unless all the seats are used up and I have to sit outside like those poor lasses in the photos.

Went for a short walk with hubby this morning, dodging the showers. Down by Loch Derg all we could hear was the wind in the reeds, and a few ducks.

We live in a bungalow but I still feel uneasy up the ladder cleaning the gutters.
