Jerome,

This is nice. Although, every time I look at it, it feels like I am going to hit the ground any second:) How did you take this picture?

Vahid

Vahid,it was almost a free-fall--I was leaning over the edge of an bunji jumper's perch on the Donau Tower in Donau Stadt, near Vienna.

While falling

For a moment I thought you said that this was taken in free-fall!! That would be a test for the CAF on a G2. Lovely light, by the way...and did you jump?

Jump ! Charez

Charez, true, "springing" would have been an interesting test of the machines continuous auto-focus function. And, my stomach. I did not jump. They did not have a parachute nor did were they willing to give me a significant discount for the T-shirt ;-) .
