Taken atop Cetatea Poenari (Fortress Penari) in Romania.
It's very interesting and I recommend you all read about it!: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poenari_Castle

I climbed 1480 steps to get to this castle, and then onto the highest wall of the castle which I could find, to take this photo. It was VERY high up, and I was teetering on the edge of a VERY long fall backwards. To the right, where the barriers are, the part of the castle collapsed during a landslide in 1888, which reveals the valley in which the Transfaragasan lies (Google it. Biker porn. Was on Top Gear). The two people are Belinda and Nicolas, the friends I was adventuring with.

Taken on a compact. Did a bit of HDR, desaturated a bit, and edited out 7 people. I'll show you the original if I win
