Guy on the edge, Grand Canyon National Park.
I was shooting from Yavapai Point a couple of nights ago when this guy climbs over the railing and steps down onto an incredibly tiny outcropping of rock. Crazy! His name is Vofka and he is from the Ukraine. Really great guy and has tons of confidence. He is also incredibly patient. I asked to wait while I got a shot of him on the ledge and he was kind enough to oblige.
Vofka, it was great meeting you. I hope you enjoy the photograph.

Fearless!!!!! Great shot Adam…………………
Thanks!
on the edge in more ways than one! was he looking for something special?
I think he was just being himself.
Great shot, Adam, a very “personal” touch….. no way that I would be out there!
