Spinnaker Tower -

- at Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth. You can take an internal lift up to the viewing platforms (the 3 'blocked-in' levels at the top) but I've never been tempted.

Lovely shot

Had a quick thought you had decamped to Dubai for a minute Hazel....very imaginative icon ...Portsmouth is a place I have never been to!

[Claire]

Well your viewing point is pretty spectacular too

[Karen B.]

Mixing ultra modern & dated really can work, I suppose though I think the spinnaker too modern but interesting in design, well shot.

@kbroges

There was a bit of controversy when it was built - as you can imagine!

[Hilary]

Lovely image and super blue sky!

[Richard Hickey]

Fabulous picture.

[Linda]

Wonderful shot - there is so much to take in. Love the combination of modern architecture, the ship masts to the left and the sky.

[Nita]

A wonderful shot, the tower looks and sounds interesting.

Lots to photograph, Pat and lovely long walks along the seafront.

Beautiful tower and capture. I won`t go in there ( I`ve fear of hight even when I see only the pic.)
Like that sailing vessel in the back( The USS Victory ?)

@pyrrhula

That's HMS Warrior, and the Victory is behind but not visible in the photo.
It makes me feel ill just to look at it too and Ray suffers from vertigo, worse as he has got older.

Great composition, fantastic looking tower, but I feel the same as you and Ferry good enough for me to look up

[Janiskay]

Futuristic looking. They are talking about building something like this in Miami.
