Description
I was nerve for the people doing this. I live in a land of no hills or rocks even. They have to ship in the rocks if you see them. I do not like high places. never did.
This is at the rim of the Grand Canyon. I took this last year when richardphotos and me when on a trip out west together. had a wonderful time too.
not sure where on the rim this is but it just past the Indian tower they made there I think.
here is a link to some imformation that you may like to read on the Grand Canyon

Completely agree with genefleeman's statement...no picture can do it justice. Been there about twenty years ago...seemed like you could just lean out and touch it...but not recommended. Nice capture!

I've been climbing some rocks in CO... it gives ya a strange feeling, so I'd rather not do that again! Awesome view!

Superb capture, Jocko!

Hummmm ..... A little bold these photographers Right an error and hop with the sky where in hell. But good. Not for me. I take difficult photographs but never with the catch with one sécurity non adequate ((5++)) Hummmm..... Un peu téméraires ces photographes Juste une erreur et hop au ciel où en enfer . Mais bon . Pas pour moi . Je prend des photos difficiles mais jamais au prise avec une sécuritée non adéquate ((5++))

Great capture Jocko. It makes me nervous, when I see people balance out on the edge, just for a photo. I’m in south Florida and there are no hills down here except the landfill. :>) Dana
