    Terrific composition, it looks like you had a great day to photograph the light and colours are outstanding. I always enjoy a great story with the image. Well done Clifford.

    You've given us a terrific view of this infamous slide, beautifully accented by the peaks above, sky and autumn colours. Great shot Clifford.

    Very cool, Clifford. The story makes the photo even more interesting. I agree with Yves....well done.

    Great POV and framing to present the disaster that occurs in 1903. Very nice colours of the yellow foreground leading to the white slope of the cliff. Appreciate the special blue of the sky as well. Well done Clifford.
