remind me not to loan you my lens. This picture is really startling. I captures the vertigo feeling of height and the lure of the fall in a way that makes it uncomfortable even to look at. I guess the moving cars, the curves, and the directional arrows contribute to the sense of spin and dizziness.

I really don't think I want to know what risks you took to get this photo. An interesting interpretation, and a good choice of location.

my gosh i feel ill looking at this one.

Hope it's only your shoes on that ledge ;-)

I hope you just put your shoes on the ledge
(it looks like it, as they seem to be untied).

Great - at first I thought I'd witness a traffic accident... then I saw the shoes in the foreground. Truely a life & death game. The street and its painted signs show a nice geometrical pattern as well.

I see a choice between life and death here so I guess it fits in with the challenge but it lacks something.

:)

This is such an awesome idea for this challenge. I would have liked to see less street and more legs....you almost don't notice the feet at the bottom of the pic. My eyes are drawn straight to the "cross-walk" area, and the vehicle in it.

This really fits the challenge while freaking me out at the same time. Mostly because I don't want you to drop the camera.

would have been even better if one of the feet was stepping over ;-) but probably best photoshoping that one in eh?

Nice I like it and I'm jealous of your head for heights.

Scary and quite appropriate. I almost overlooked the feet, as the rest of the image grabs my attention first. Makes all the difference.

I'm so bored @ work

Interesting perspective-but foolish. Too dangerous.
