Another view from the Macau Tower ...

Would you try to walk in the sky ?

If you want to experiment another view of height, you may also have a look to my post on TrekEarth Vertigo

What a spectacular picture, Sylvie, if you don't mind, I stay here behind my screen... You created the height very well, looks very dangerous, "high" quality !

Hello Sylvie, looks like they have a litlle fear, great picture
Bye alex

Wow! looks great!! It was shot with such a cool angle, but where were you when you shot it?? This one I could never do, I get dizzy just from looking at the photo...

Bonsoir Sylvie,
J'aime bien le cadre, la profondeur et la netteté.
Mais aussi l'expression des cinq personnes vêtues en orange, ainsi que le petit sourire de celui habillé en blanc.
Le nom de la photo est bien choisi;))
Amitiés, Jérôme.

Anxiety on these faces... :) You portrayed perfectly the depth they are about to conquer!

Could you describe how the sky walking is done?

Those cars look small from that high up. I can feel those guys shaking, I know I would be!! rarther you than me Sylvie. Great shot though

Don't look down!

I've been on some very high places myself, but nothing quite so unusual as this, great angle you've chosen, it intensifies the giddy feeling the picture gives you!

Bien les marionettes !
Jean Michel

toujours ce montage sur PS?? superbe, j'ai l'impression d'y etre, d'ailleurs j'en ai deja les jambes flagada, comme les fraises... ;-)) tu imagines si un petit rigolo avait une paire de ciseaux fous... hummm... moi j'aime bien les emotions fortes...

What were you doing up there?
This a tourist tour?
It is increadible high!

Good capture !

Did you try this Slyvie?! Are you with them? very adventurous! If given the chance why not! tfs!

Oh, those brave people!! My daughter jumped from the NZ Sky Tower and she was very scared. Did you jump too Sylvie? Well captured, Janice

Cà, c'est la photo par excellence que je ne prendrai jamais! Elle n'en est que plus belle à mes yeux! Et c'est très spécial et bien rendu, le naturel avec lequel le guide explique toute la journée qu'il n'y a aucun risque! Bravo. Claude

Houlà ! Impressionnant. JE suppose que toi aussi tu étais suspendue à ton harnais ?
Personnellement, je crois que je n'aurais pas osé, ou en tout cas n'aurais pas été à l'aise !
L'ombre de la tour dans le carré est bien vu.
Quelle est cette tour ? Un chateau d'eau ?

bonjour,
ce cadrage en oblique donne à cette prise de vue un caractère fort qui nous entraine dans les pensées de ces pauvres ...
Bravo pour le photographe
JP

I feel dizzy just looking at this:/..... well caught:)

Nana

Freaken insane man....!!! and your vertigo one is even worse. I have no problem skydiving, but this.... NO WAY. It's all fun and games until some one falls down and breaks a leg. Hehehehe

DAM

You've already scared me with the Vertigo one on TE, so this one doesn't come as such a big surprise...
And no I wouldn't try it. Sorry to disappoint you, but heights aren't quite meant for me and I wasn't meant for them either. If I tried this I would definitely not get back to Earth alive.
But a good smiley here for your enthusiasm and even willingness to try it next time :)
Nuné

J'ai deja le vertige là ...

nice photo. very interesting,
nelka
