Thank you Andy

Pleased that you like it!
As for that couple of lads, no , nothing to do with me, but they do show the scale, so they get to stay!

Impressive scenery; well taken.

Thank you Jaap,

I must say that it is a little different from Holland!

You in America then Peter? A very impressive sight. This could also be a helicopter view with a long lens. A pity that I can't see your exif on here!
Best wishes, Herb
ps enjoy the rest of your trip if you are really there.

Thank you Herb,

I am pleased that you have enjoyed the view. This picture was taken a few years ago, but along with almost everything else I put on Pano at the time I removed the exif. I'll try and dig out the original and let you know.
It was taken standing on the solid ground (there's a bit in the right bottom corner), a continuation of the rim which goes across the top of the view.

OK Herb, I checked...

Thank you Nick,

Glad you like it, but as I just said to Herb, a fairly old picture now, so unfortunately not another holiday!

Hi Peter,

Well I don't have a good head for heights so I would never picnic there but I am sure they enjoyed it! A super picture.

Best wishes, Rosa.

Thank you Rosa,

Your kind visit is most welcome! I believe it is around a mile deep, but stay away from the edge and everything will be OK!!
