Oh this is spectacular. How did you get up there?

Beautiful, especially that second shot from the top. Don't know how you got there. Heights are definitely not my cup of tea so I will NEVER be capturing a site such as yours.

Really beautiful photographs!

I was in Europe France Italy in Sept. and posted my visits!
