Not really original, but I seem to have run out of time...

Thanks Adam, it's about 25 feet to the ground below. Glad you like my shoes.

Great shot, Jason! I really like it. the whole idea is great! I love how sharp and focused the shoes are. I might have used a rotation blur to simulate vertigo but this is great, too. One tiny detail - it looks like the blur took off a tiny bit of the tip of the right hand shoe. It's not a big deal but you might like to fix it if it bothers you (after I point it out

).

All best wishes,

Endre

Thanks Endre, my friend! I will give rotation blur a shot instead, thanks for the suggestion!

And now that you pointed out the blur on the toe, it does bother me. :worried: I'll fix that as well, Thanks!

Hi Jason,

This shot is very cool. I really like the feel it provokes of going on down forever. Good luck this week.

Nice concept and execution. I'm glad whatever is down below is a blur, period, or my stomach would do flip flops just looking at the image!!

Jason,
A similar concept came to mind when I was desperately searching for an interesting shoot but you nailed this one. Great take on the WA.

Good one Jason. I feel a touch of vertigo just looking at it.

Thank you Trent, I too was getting pretty desperate. Luckily I happened to be working on the roof anyway, so it was just a matter of bringing up some shoes and my camera.

Thanks Jim, sorry about the vertigo... Maybe I should put a warning on this...

Jason

P.S. Just like to let everyone know that I'll be gone on a holiday for the next couple of weeks. Good luck in this and coming assignments!

Nice shot shot Jason. I like it as it is. Feels like the ground is rushing toward me, now that would be scary.

Thanks Christian, I'm not real big into the heights thing either. 8-10 feet is about as high as I go, comfortably.

Cheers.

Jason,

Wonderful! Love the sharp focus on the shots and these were the right shoes for the shot. They work perfectly to keep you eye on the edge. Great choice and very well done.
