What a great vantage point.

I can see a shoe in 2 :P
I'd love to drive one of those around to get shots from that high up

Nice shots. I've got some from our 75' Quint. We're suppose to be doing some aerial training in the next couple of weeks. One of the other departments have a 110' Tower. I might have to sneak up and snap some shots.

Great Composition! It gets your heart pumping looking down like that. We give schools demos and bring a broken camera (hidden). We borrow one of the teachers to take a photo of the class, climb the ladder, and drop the broken one. The reaction is classic!!

Thanks for the comments. This is a '99 Smeal. 100 feet if pointed straight up. Nice and simple compared to our Bronto Towers. Much faster too.
