Note to several commentators ... vertigo is NOT a fear of heights! It is a condition involving dizziness and/or loss of balance. It is actually more likely to be associated with looking UP than down. What a pity this excellent photograph was apparently marked down because some commentators did not know what they were talking about, and were not prepared to find out.

vertigo, in my book, is associated with lookng DOWN, not up.

Neat building shot, good composition, nice job.

yep

great perspective, crop and title to match...good luck
01/14/2005 01:46:13 PM
Nice perspective

Vertigo is fear of heights, not tall buildings. Nice capture and an architectularly beautiful building.

VERY LOW distortion. Really a nice job

Funny I should vote on this today..I stayed home from work with a seriou case of vertigo, not a fun thing. Good picture, nice angle, wish sky wasn't so washed out but if this is the Sears Tower (like it appears) I can understand...we haven't had very good skies here lately.

i saw a photo of this building in a photoshop contest taken from a spot probably less than ten feet from where you took it! it definitely gives a sense of vertigo, and your's is better framed than the one from the PS contest.

Nice lines (8)

a good concept, but it would have been better being on top of the building looking down.

very smart and classy. This does give me vertigo.

Cool lones. The reflection in the first level is somewhat distracting, you might have cropped it away. The rest looks really cool. 9.

Nice architectural shot. Works
01/12/2005 06:26:46 AM
Great work. The dizzying perspective is very good, but the zig-zag element on the structure makes the title even more appropriate. 9.
01/12/2005 05:01:29 AM
Shouldn't it be looking down instead of looking up?
01/12/2005 12:53:37 AM
Great perspective. Nice lines. I like the tone you've used. Good job.
01/12/2005 12:33:40 AM
Would be better is you were looking down for vertigo, though I know it can often go up too. Good composition
