Istanbul december 2009 7300.jpg

This is a "obelisk" made of hewn stone. It at some point in time seems to have been clad in bronze by Emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus (919-959). It may date back to Theodosius the Great or even Constantine the Great.

Nikon D3
1/500s f/8.0 at 28.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
