Description To tell you the truth, I'm really not happy with the way this came out. I didn't get to do much with my camera before I took it on account of I was sitting on top of a giant swaying metal frame really high above the ground and I am terrified of heights. All I wanted to do at the time was get my feet on the ground.

I like the picture, but I think it's missing something. Something to grab you. Do I sound crazy?


It's still a nice shot, don't get me wrong.

Ah, you don't sound crazy at all! I think I know exactly what you mean. There is no definite subject in the picture and I've also noticed that the trees in the background can be pretty distracting. I should be going back there soon, I'll have to redo this with some changes. Thanks for the advice.

Whoa, great shot. I love all of the conflicting lines and strange patterns that show up in it. It's definitely an eye-catching shot, and one that you have to look at for a minute to see all the details. I love photos like that. I also like that you put it in B & W, it brings more attention to the lighting and the lines the bars create. The symmetry is excellent, too; very pleasing on the eyes. Sorry you weren't happy with the way it came out, but in my opinion it looks great! Nice shot.

"I was sitting on top of a giant swaying metal frame really high above the ground..." Oh God, that makes me want to ball up in a corner and shake. I'm scared of heights, too.

Thank you very much! I wasn't sure if anyone would like this shot, but I figured I'd post it anyway. I'm glad you like what I did with it.

Oh, it was so scary. It was above the railroad tracks too, so I kept thinking the train was going to come, making it sway even more. I was so freaked out.

Jesus, that hurts me just thinking about that and a train! And yeah, I definitely liked the shot, I'm glad you posted it!
