Photohunt : different

St. Louis Arch
click on the thumbnail to view a larger image

Here is a “different” view of the St. Louis Arch. I took this at the base of the Arch, by the entrance to get on the elevators to go up into the Arch. Yes, you can actually go to the top. But I warn you, it’s not for the claustrophobic or for the light hearted.

    Neat!!! But I’m one with ‘vertigo’ sensations, so I’d be the weak ones keeping my feet firmly on the ground.

    My Photo Hunt Different is shared, I hope, if you haven’t already, you can drop by and pay a visit. Happy weekend.

    That’s a pretty cool shot, Yoshi. I’ve been to see the arch, but it wasn’t open for the elevator up at the time. It’s hard to shoot without a fairly wide angle – what did you use?

    The photo is awesome :) – I love to look at photos with a different angles. Thank you so much for sharing your take on this week’s hunt theme.

    Have a great weekend.

    Thanks for visiting my PhotoHunt entry.

    I’ve always loved going up high on towers, buildings, etc. but if I stood under that and tried to look straight up, I’d probably lose my balance. Better for me to have a firm grip on a railing. Great photo!

  12. A very interesting (& different) perspective. I’ll take a pass on going to the top. Not enough Zanex on the planet!

    If I get 2 options, I’ll definitely not try the route you’ve shown

  14. That was a great shot and the angel is different indeed. Have a great week.

  15. Haydee says:

    A total unique and different view. Must been a heck of finding that angle for shooting. Love it.

  16. Tammie says:

    Funny how a different angle can make an easily recognizable structure so unfamiliar. Beautiful shot.

    I remember that day. I thought it was weird you pressing yourself against the side of The Arch taking pictures up one leg. That is until I saw the photo. It did come out great.
