1. Wow, that's a great shot

The patterns almost made me dizzy trying to follow them. I briefly wondered what it looked like in color, and then realized I didn't care.

2. Thanks. You will see more of this building. The colors

distracted from the effect. It would have given something for the eye to hold on to. I didn't want that.

3. OOOOPS, this one gets me. It so perfectly shows how I feel

when I'm in such a situation. Perfect catch and depiction.
I'm getting vertigo now, really!

4. It is part of an atrium. I get vertigo if I'm near the ceiling.

Having it out of kilter seems to add to the effect. It is also easy to flip it to where the floor is a distant wall.

I had the camera on a monopod, I held it out over the edge and tripped the shutter with a remote. I couldn't bring myself to look over the edge. My knees get weak the closer I walked, so that was the only way I could do it. I used to be a lineman, so I know I can handle working off the ground. It's the ceiling that messes with my mind.

5. Disorienting for sure

But nice shot! :thumbsup:

6. Escher would look at it and say "amateur."

7. That is just a cool shot.

For a lot of reasons, not least the vantage point. I like it very much.

8. It's a cool building.

Here's an image inside I got from Google. I have some I haven't put on line yet. I like it better in black and white.
