This is me in the mountainous landscape of North Wales. I may look to be simply stood in the hilly scenic countryside but the picture is deceiving as I am actually standing next to and at the top of `Pistyll Rhaeadr` which is the highest single drop waterfall in the UK. Only around 4 feet behind me is a vertical drop of over 240 feet straight down! So had to be careful I didn't step back too far or I would of been straight over the edge backwards!!! lol. A wonderful position to take shots of the beautiful surroundings all the same.

Love the story with this photo and I can see where the drop off is. The landscape behind you is marvelous; so much prettier than the flat terrain of Florida. I think I could sit there for hours and just breathe in the scenery. Nice to put a face with the name too. :)

Fabulous portrait shot! Takes my breath away. I can almost hear the thunderous roar of the water undulating along its way! Stay safe. I was once so intent on capturing just the right angle of a Blue Heron I waded out into a swamp area a little. It wasn't until I got home and downloaded my shots I saw a large poisonous snake in the foreground right near where I stood.

Many thanks for the comments everyone. I best just point out for all our Welsh friends here on Viewbug that this picture with its beautiful scenery was in fact taken in Wales. Paul.
