It’s All In Your Viewpoint

Tuesday, May 6, 2008
The Great Wall, Mutianu

Here’s an example of just how pitched some of the Wall is you’re traipsing along. Holly’s not an acrobat or hanging onto something off camera; she’s standing upright. Of course, in taking the photo, it didn’t occur to me to line it up based on gravity and a true sense of vertical; I held it in line with by body that was also standing on the same slant.

When corrected, well...just look at her wisps of hair in the adjusted photo below. They fall straight down, with gravity.

Now you see what walking the Wall really means.

Any questions?
