Took this during a 10 hour, 11 mile hike on Mt. Katahdin in Maine. I got inspired by a terrible picture hanging in every business or home in Millnockett Maine of a book hanging over the edge of Katahdin, the picture was framed terribly and it bothered me for the longest time. So this is basically a one shot deal, no variations; i got lucky. Enjoy

This had the potential to be a beautiful image, but the shoes ruin it. it could have also used a bit more color saturation to make the image 'pop'.

The work of art may have a moral effect, but to demand moral purpose from an artist is to make him ruin his work.
(Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - 1832)
Cor! That put the boot in didn't it?
Good for you! You made it! I expect you will remember the view forever. Did you feel good?

Life is not always pretty.
Long hike, after 11 miles you can feel the skin on your feet move everywhich way.
I have enhanced this picture before but i prefer to upload only untouched pictures. I'll upload one without my feet sometime for all those interested in just zee view., Oh yea. And it did feel good.

I think your feet absolutely MAKE this picture! Even the thumbnail gives me the willies in the pit of my stomach. The full-size image is SCARY AS ____! If that's the effect you wanted, you've succeeded gloriously.
The saturation and/or the light - dark needs some tinkering, no big deal.

I personally like it with the feet. It makes you consider what it must have felt like to be there. Clever title by the way! I took a similar shot in Arizona but it didnt come out as daunting as this. I think it's excellent! Makes me want to go hiking!

if i were a fermata, would u hold me?
Yikers! This looks scary if you think the person was standing - gulp! That is quite a gorgeous view. The craggy rocks jutting out ad more visual interest. This is a stunning sight that is fine without the extra color saturation..but that's me :) Why don't you take this picture to those business folks and see if they'll put it up instead of the boring book picture? Wonderful image Mike :^*>

I need to catch up on things so can't comment too much. But I love all of your fine images. I might be lurking in the background :)
I'm with those who say the feet make this picture! This isn't so much a landscape shot as a story about a Mountain and a climber . . . Inspiring shot! Wen

Oh my goodness you are a braver person than me to sit so close to that edge,, I almost edged back when I saw it :) I think the feet really make me feel as though I am looking at it through my own eyes, so I dont mind them being there. Thats one hell of a view though, and well worth the hike.
