 Just a quick shot from the observation deck of the CN tower in Toronto while on a family vacation. Only editing done was cropping, I thought the darker image in the foreground helped highlight the distance down...

Fun times :) You should have had like a penny or something falling. Something like this would be too tempting for me to drop something down there.

OMG - as someone who suffers from near daily bouts of vertigo, that is a horrible sight! Cool photo, though.

You've certainly captured the feeling. Wow. Great shot.

Oh jeez. This does me in. That's a brave shot and an interesting viewpoint. You've actually got some decent hyperfocus here, although the exposure is a bit dull.

Looks scary and a good shot except its a little bit bright on the left building, but other than that it really cool.
