"Conquerable"
Uploaded: January 16, 2006
I have a phobia of heights. This scenic overlook is located in Great Cacapon, WV. I am not sure how high it is but everytime we visit my husbands parents we pass this overlook, and everytime I am too afraid to get out and see the beauty. Well today I decided I could do it, and I did, and it was truly breathtaking! Now that I have proven to myself that I can do, I look forward to stopping there often and during the different seasons!
Outside, late morning, no flash, f5.6, 1/1000sec, ISO-200.
