📷 It's Symmetry Sunday! 📷

The intricate fan vaults of King's College Chapel (1446-1554), University of Cambridge, Cambridge, England.

This is just one of the hundreds of images available for purchase at: foraphotography.com

Color photo looking up at the vaulted ceiling of a church which features supporting ribs that spread out like fans from the tall piers that rise up on either side. Stone tracery and stained glass windows occupy the spaces between the piers. Organ pipes can be seen just a bit further down the length of the nave.
