I can't even look over that in person - I get Vertigo really bad: I hate it! Looks like somebodies been in my neck of the woods. It's a pretty cool photo but too bad it's so much in the shadow.

The perspective of this shot actually decreases the sense of height rather than emphasizing it, which I assume was your intent.

Cool, Hoover Dam. Wish it was a little lighter overall picture but it does have that falling feeling. 6

i have that fear too...i love looking at dams and bridges but I always worry I am going to tumble. This image is in great need of better lighting. The perspective and colors are very solid - but the shadows overtake the whole image and it will likely impact your score. Still, I like the effort 6
