Sonora Pass

Taken during a visit with our son in California.
This is as far as we got, secondary to my wife's extreme vertigo.
She doesn't even like to look at this photo.

I too suffer from vertigo Michael but I have to get the shot :) Wonderful leading line and beautiful vista! #1304054Michael R. McKenney September 02, 2010
Often Donna will say, "I'll just wait here in the car; you go take your picture. Just don't drive any closer to the edge."Thanks for your encouraging words! #8876946

Beautiful image, Michael! Love mountain roads like this but I have the same problem, my wife does not. She's getting a little better but still has a hard time looking out and thinks for sure the car is going to fall off! ;>) #8956945Michael R. McKenney October 09, 2010
Thanks for the comment, Denny. Seems like your wife and my wife think alike when it comes to heights. . . #8956947Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
