OMG!!! This is absolutely gorgeous! The scale with the person standing at the edge and the boat in the water is just incredible! Amazing work Darren! This whole series is incredible! I assume you had a great vacation! :)

Simply wonderful. Well worth the hike to get there. As baissie says, the silhouette of the lone figure on the cliff really adds a sense of scale to the shot. Excellent work! :)

Stunning (not that you'd get me standing there for a thousand pounds!)

Martin Third says:

The figure definitely makes the shot. Weird how something which takes up less than 0.1% of the area of photo has so much impact!
