Great picture. I chose not to fight the crowd and go down there, but it was fantastic seeing it on tv. Great camera shots from the tv, they did a good job.

Thanks for the shot. However, they do not make enough alcohol or fast enough to get me up there.

Great shooting! However, if this was done LAST NIGHT (Friday), it should have been loaded with Friday's date, not today's (Saturday). Looks like you got two AC's for photos actually taken on the same date. But, still great shooting.

What an historic moment. It's wonderful that you were there to share this fantastic image with us. Watching it on tv was nerve wracking enough so I can't imagine the excitement in person. The Wallenda's have always been and continue to be..the best high wire walkers in the world. Great shot!

Oh my gosh, I couldn't have watched that on tv and definitely not in person! I'd be too scared he'd fall! Amazing shot you got though!

Nice!
I once saw Karl Wallenda walk across Cleveland Stadium...when I was 10 years old...something you never forget seeing.
Thanks for sharing!
