Nice subject matter here. I like it, and it gives the impression that you had to work hard to get to this spot. I wish the horizon were level. It's distracting. The contrast could be pushed with almost any imaging software like irfanview (free and small and fast) or Paintshop (large, cumbersome, $50 US), but all in all it's a really good image.
Great scenery, I don't see anything at your feet so it makes me a little dizzy thinking you were hanging out over nothing to get it. You had a clear day to see so far.
Ahhh, that takes me back. For those who don't know, the haze in the background is a characteristic feature of the Blue Mountains (related to the local vegetation) and can scarce be avoided. This is actually a very clear shot for that location.
"A piece of toast with butter always lands butter side down, and a cat always lands on its feet. What happens if a piece of toast is tied butter side down to the back of a cat? Does it perpetually hover above the ground in indecision when dropped?"
Alexis, there's actually a viewing platform at about the right angle for this, within walking distance of downtown Katoomba. There's even a big visitor center with several gift shops in it (still under construction when I was there two years ago) and a parking area for all of the buses that go there. They know how to accommodate tourists in that area.
