Is that for real? I'm sure OH&S wouldn't be too impressed.
Sue Roberts20-Jan-2010 01:59
this looks dangerous!
Fay Stout19-Jan-2010 19:39
DOH! Hope they don't come to collect the trash while he is up there!
Jola Dziubinska16-Jan-2010 01:39
Well seen and captured, Cindi, cool trick :)
Walter Otto Koenig15-Jan-2010 18:34
Neat shot Cindi with this processing and optical illusion.
laine15-Jan-2010 16:12
Nah...don't want to think anyone would be that stoopid :))) Great capture, Cindi
Carl and Racine Erland15-Jan-2010 05:10
Great perspective...even on the ground you couldn't get me to climb that ladder. Very well seen. - Racine - V
Sheila15-Jan-2010 01:52
Great optical illusion! Well spotted!
Barbara Heide14-Jan-2010 11:58
oustanding capture! v
Mieke WA Minkjan14-Jan-2010 06:53
lol, no of course not, great optical illusion.
Dave14-Jan-2010 02:44
Looks like you caught a Peeping Tom plus a candidate for the Darwin Awards all in one click
of the shutter.
carol j. phipps14-Jan-2010 02:39
Wonderful for a news piece!
Guest 14-Jan-2010 02:34
If it's not an illusion, then that fellow's elevator must not go to the top.
Ray :)14-Jan-2010 02:06
makes me wonder if he does a PAD too.....
Tomasz Dziubinski - Photography14-Jan-2010 01:16
Excellent capture, Vote.
It seems to be a hard and danger work.
CIS14-Jan-2010 00:31
You are always in the right spot at the right time.
Gosh, trash bins are sturdy in Texas. :o)
Jay Levin14-Jan-2010 00:22
Definitely an illusion. I guess they don't use platforms in Texas because they want to make everything look bigger!
Guest 13-Jan-2010 22:57
What is he doing???? Great capture Cindi!!!
Phillip Normanton13-Jan-2010 22:56
Natural selection in action ;o)
LynnH13-Jan-2010 22:48
Oh goodness, where's OSHA when you need them???? Great find and nice in the treatment!
Jess. ( Lady.D.)13-Jan-2010 21:53
Well he obviously has a window fetish:-) super shot Cindi...
Doug Cruden13-Jan-2010 21:39
LOL, I hope he's safe up there :o)) Great capture Cindi, you sure do find the most remarkable scenes!!
Guest 13-Jan-2010 21:05
A beautiful od building!
Great catch!
Stewart Mitchell13-Jan-2010 20:31
Hehe...fine play Cindi, great illusion :)
Guest 13-Jan-2010 19:44
His problem solving brain works, a pity about the safety bit
lisamidi13-Jan-2010 19:35
Oh la la, that looks pretty unsafe! Great catch, Cindi, excellent processing! v
Johnny JAG13-Jan-2010 19:24
Sheer madness.
Abescat Charles13-Jan-2010 18:16
Excelent!
Jeff Lobaugh13-Jan-2010 17:54
Nicely spotted. I guess you gotta do what you gotta do when you lock yourself out of the apartment!!
Ronald Bijtenhoorn13-Jan-2010 17:51
Well sheen; great capture
Guest 13-Jan-2010 17:44
Nicely spotted and a beautiful old building. The processing does give it an illusional feel!
Kathryn13-Jan-2010 17:36
This is a good one, although it gives me vertigo.
Ann...13-Jan-2010 16:29
That really doesn't look safe!!!
Guenter Eh13-Jan-2010 16:23
Tricky! ;) :):)
Nancy Good13-Jan-2010 16:22
OMG ... it certainly appears that way. But, hopefully, the ladder is actually planted firmly on the ground BEHIND the trash bin. ;-) GREAT "vision" to see it this way.
globalgadabout13-Jan-2010 16:17
alarming scene...perhaps he forgot his key..
Paula Krugerud13-Jan-2010 15:44
OH MY...that's gonna leave a mark!! Great catch - good eye!
Ed McConnell13-Jan-2010 14:53
Nice find and shot Cindi..this image gives me the shivers..
Scott Browne13-Jan-2010 14:51
Crazy. You should submit this to thereifixedit.com.
Bernard Davis13-Jan-2010 13:57
Rather him than me. That's a great spot.
pkocinski13-Jan-2010 13:54
Good eye - seeing this photo opportunity!
Stephanie13-Jan-2010 13:36
Anything it takes to get the job done. This is wonderful Cindi! V
J. Scott Coile13-Jan-2010 13:19
Nowhere but up from there ;-) Hope OSHA doesn't see this :-o
Guest 13-Jan-2010 13:00
oh yak, this looks aweful.
veraferia13-Jan-2010 12:50
Is it an illusion?...Great image with excellent processing and tone.
Guest 13-Jan-2010 12:37
I am assuming this is an illusion based on the angle... but if it isn't, I truly hope the ladder is in the trash bin for stability sake. Nice find! Jv V!
