Very good clear shot. Well, I would prefer to walk.

Up in the air!

Very effective way of transportation. No doubt it gives the visitors a very good view.

Good way to get from here to there. Love the pov! Excellent composition!

Nice take on the theme.
The Swiss must build a lot of these!

probably adapted from a ski lift. I see music is included.

Nice shot - those cables don't look very thick from this perspective...I'll have to ride it one of these days (with camera in hand of course).
Mairéad05-Aug-2009 19:37
Very interesting view up and I bet the view down is good too.

Excellent capture, great pov, and picks up nicely against the blue of the sky.

I would need to pluck up courage first...:) A good capture, Walter
