Philly

Ouaisne Common, Jersey

Believe me, even just standing on this ledge made me nervous, I am amazed at how Philly mamaged to retain her cool and intense concentration and did a head stand... on a granite rock with a fair bit of wind and... disregarding the sheer hight... I just had to include some of the cliff face to show you where Philly performed her yoga poses...

Impressive

Hehehe, not being completely straight is probably my fault. It was a delicate balance to do a headstand on these granite cliffs. I took a fair few picturs and this was one of my favourites. I am not a yoga expert so I would not know what is right and what is not. I can just tell you that I would not even be able to do this on the beach, let alone a couple hundred yards above it. Oh yeah, the base of these rocks lead to the coast. Slipping would mean wet feet and one heck of a climb back up...

Don't blame her for not being completely straight! Expect she found that mentally challenging! Brilliant picture, and love your work, well done! S ;)

wow not scared of heights i gather. this must give her such a rush. she is not completely straight yet but it is very close. the ridge gives the image a tremendous sense of scale. i dont mind doing headstands but this is suicidal.
