Stunning! As for the timing...is there a big "S" and a cape under those hiking clothes? #4611653

Zachariah Schnepf August 06, 2007

I just had to really scramble up those rocks in a hurry, it was a little on the sketchy side, but tons of fun :) #4611669

This is a perfect image...except that it makes me dizzy. Not a shot for an acrophobic! But it is dazzling in its beauty, clarity, composition...everything. A great choice for POTD! Congratulations, Zack.

Paul D. November 23, 2007

Zack, great images evoke emotion, correct? For that, you win first place... how many folks with vertigo or just plain fear of heights are WINCING at both the closeness of you to that edge, and the fact that you had to scramble and stop short, just in time for the shutter... makes us shudder! (OK, bad pun). Oh, and, the picture itself is just great... color, richness of tone, composition. Talk about making us feel like we're there... you hit it! #5112875
