Taken from the height of 829 ft, sleeping on a precipice all the while thinking I must be mad to attempt this. This is the third of the trajectories of the beautiful Jog Falls which is called Rocket. If you look carefully at the bottom right corner of this image you can see some people sitting. That must give you an idea of how crazy I must have been trying this shot. What do you think, was it worth it?

The image has been cropped and unsharpen mask has been applied to it (Thanks to purmusic for teaching it)

If I tried that, it would probably be the last picture I ever took. That's scary looking down there. Well done, and a beautiful shot.

You are crazy! But you got a good shot out of it. First easy suggestion - you can play with the contrast etc in lightroom or photoshop or equiv. I tried for grins and the change looked nice. Second easy suggestion - crawl back to the ledge again and get a vertical shot for me :)

Oh my, did you sleep up there, that's really high up. You sure wouldn't get me up there. Good textures and capture, makes me dizzy looking down.

Hey Prashanth
Well its worth it that you did not fall! If you fell then there would be no picture and no you! So all in all Its a great picture!!! Love your dangerous angle!
