Date Uploaded: Sep 10, 2008

 Taken over the edge of Vernal Falls in Yosemite National Park - I am afraid of heights so when my girlfriend and I went to the edge only guarded by a small hand rail, it felt pretty darn RISKY for me.... :) I took some and actually got her head in this one accidentally but I love the effect of having someone below me looking down to give it perspective

thought that was a rock at first glance, not someone's head... maybe try showing more of the person or none of them at all

IMHO, The concept is great, but I think the image would have more impact if you could get the head more in focus, or take the head out altogether.

I wish I could see more of the person with a slightly different angle to help give some perspective.

Very nice interpretation of theme. And there is a feel here. Very nice. The out of focus head distracts a bit.
