It was quite dangerous, I was there with a Canadian I met and this was not the "tourist" way down. In order to take the photo, I had to balance myself rather recklessly on a ledge, so as you can imagine, I was just happy to get the shot of - only one chance too, as he dissapeared into a hole a second later.

Another fine story telling picture that needs to be restructured in terms of composition. The center placement of subject removes the tension from what seemed a very dangerous situation. Framed horizontally with the subject off to the left would have suggested a long, dangerous road ahead. In this case, he is simply frozen in the middle of a journey.
