Life: Vertigo!

It's time for a photo. Because I haven't been out with my camera this week, I'm pulling a favorite from my Flickr photostream that I haven't featured here before.

I took this while on vacation in Las Vegas in November 2006. It's from the observation deck at the top of the "Eiffel Tower" at the Paris Hotel. I made sure my camera strap was firmly around my wrist, then stuck the camera through a viewing hole in the safety fence, then pointed it straight down.

Does it make you feel a little dizzy? Like the world is spinning?

    That really is a scarey photo. Looks like you are really bent over the railing.

    According to this site, the observation deck is 460 feet up.
