This was a bit of a challenge for me... or perhaps I am just lazy this week, since I am on spring break. So here are some (somewhat) vertical interpretations - my take on the theme. :)
Vetical interpretation of the Italian flag.... Taken during a visit to Little Italy in San Diego, California.
Golden verticals - Entrance to Sterling Vineyards - Napa, California.
Crowded verticals - tall buildings Hong Kong Harbor - great backdrop for a morning TaiChi Class.
Love the row of palm trees ... with Tracey doing her morning Tai Chi.
During a educational class visit to Ardenwood Farm here in Fremont, Ca. An irritated peacock went vertical on us... much to the delight of my school kids.
Did I really push the vertical theme a bit too far?????? :) I told you, it was a bit of a challenge.

I too found the theme challenging. You came up with more than one so you must have done your homework.

Verticals and Hong Kong go together very well, right? ;b

A great variety of verticals here! The most unusual ones must be the two tai chi shots + palms!

You found plenty of good ones. I like your “angle” on the vertical theme.

Hi Eden, what a fantastic collection of photos for this week's theme. I love all of them, especially the ones in China with the tall buildings and the one with your daughter doing the Tai Chi with the the palm trees in the background.
With all these great finds I wouldn't have guessed that this was a challenge for you. Great choices and wonderful photos. Thanks so much for sharing. Have a wonderful spring break!
