That's a lovely photo Peter. I think any photo by John Godley is worth looking at with his superb collection, and the same I'd say for Roy Jackson too, and indeed Jason.

Gee thanks guy's. Its funny, you take 500 photos and get one that jumps out. Throw away 499. But this really was luck. That sky lasted for all of 30 seconds and I was there to see it.

Yeah thats a good pic!!! there's a place like this in Ely cathedral, you have to go on the tower tour, and they take you to this wooden framework, when the panel is opened you realise just how high you are!!! it makes you dizzy!!! Surprised then you realise how old all the timber holding you up is!!!!!Surprised

I thought it was a great photo too and where I work is a similarly high walkway near the roof, and I always go that way just to look over the side, even though I'm not too keen on it. It's only about an 80 foot drop but looks twice that looking down from it. Plus wroking in the dark for most of my time, I don't think I have to worry about Krissy applying for my job, not to mention the occasional lift rescue and you're not sure where the stuck lift car is---one way to find out.

That was a great photo Peter but you are far to modest, I have seen many, many pictures taken by you that are superb!Smile
