Don't you know the word "vertigo" is "death" in our passion of flying.
Nice take.

Posted: Tue Aug 08, 2006 9:27 amGreat perspective Simon!!
Posted: Tue Aug 08, 2006 9:31 amUnusual perspective and creatively composed obzelite. Certainly a shot one doesn't normally see of the Tower but still clearly recognisable

Excellent photo that brings me out in a cold sweat

This is what 'zooming in' should work like in Google Earth

Small niggle: you should have pushed those tourists aside to get the centre spot on the balcony. I think symmetry would have worked very well in this picture.
Cheers

I took a video from the same spot - hit record then held the camera out over the railing, pointed it down and zoomed in. Gave the wonderful sensation of a Jumper's Eye-View! Needless to say, one hangs onto one's camera very tightly when it's hanging hundreds of feet above the street.
