I can say without a doubt that this is going to be a tough one. Please vote for the picture that best represents our theme, which is on a picture taken from a place very high up.

Note: to get back to our regular cycle, this voting period will be shorter than normal. So get your vote in SOON!

Good luck to everyone.

Wow, alex_caps gets my vote: that's amazing! Is it taken from behind glass or have you done some crazy leaning?

I like Zapper's because it reminds me of the Amalfi coast in Italy or Capri.

I like mine best for the memories of that great day, but I voted for alex_caps' picture because it elicits twinges of vertigo. The reflections are nice, too.
