Fall from 12,000 Feet
Heights scare me. But I also don't want to miss out on any adventures, which explains how I got talked into skydiving by friends. Several years ago, I worked up the courage to go tandem skydiving over Lake Taupo, New Zealand. This week's photo was taken just I began to fall out of the plane at 12,000 feet. My tandem master was a total pro, and I ended up enjoying most of the experience. Unfortunately, the adventure didn't cure me of my fear of heights, and even looking at this photo makes my stomach churn.
Photo of the week is part of "Photo Thursday," started by Nancie at the Budget Travelers Sandbox. Please visit her site to check out other amazing photos!
