Looking Down

Natural Bridge State Park, North Adams, Massachusetts

I spotted this couple as I was looking for decent vantage points at the Natural Bridge.
They were standing exactly where I was when I took the photo with my shadow.
As I am not a fan of heights I had to gather up my courage to get that shadow shot.
I wish my photos were better from this place.
The photos just don't show how cool it was there.

Canon EOS 70D
1/125s f/11.0 at 18.0mm iso200 full exif

Great capture from this very high vantage point! I'd have been nervous even standing where the couple is below. V.

Nice image and candid look like a good drop going down. Amazing how plants seem to find a place to root among the rock formations .
Nice good detail and glad you were careful.

your pix do capture a good sense of the place...the depths below are clear enough, and the impression is abetted by the peering visitors body language..

Great perspective and candid. Excellent details. V

I wouldn't want to lean heavily on that fence

Excellent perspective, Jane. The area does look very pretty.V

Yes sometimes it is hard to capture a two-dimensional image that allows viewers to appreciate a scene like this. But the couple you included helps us to determine the scale of the scene, which is pretty amazing.

Not a fan of heights either so BraVo to you for the earlier shadow capture.
