i'll make myself famous-3

    One year ago (though it honestly feels like a lifetime), some fellow urban explorer/photographer friends and I were lucky enough to climb one of Toronto’s most amazing high-rises—one that we had often dreamed of visiting but never thought possible until the opportunity suddenly presented itself. After that serendipitous day, a photo Tom Ryaboi took of me went viral around the world and launched something of a global rooftopping photography movement. The full story is finally revealed on the photo’s anniversary via 500px‘s blog. Do check it out.

    Today, I present my own series of photos in a followup and tribute to the famous photo in question, called “I’ll make ya famous”...read the full post on Pencilprism.

      Amazing. I like the framing as the roads appear like the diagonal and intersecting near your shoes. I read your stories in 500 px recently. Keep up the good work!
