Actually I like the first few because there is a sense that you are doing this in a safe manner. (Except for the shadow in the first image that appears to be someone looking at the sun with a pair of binoculars!)

Seeing a lot of posts this morning that make me wonder how safe some people were behaving yesterday.

Thanks for sharing.

Actually, the shadow is of me taking the photo!

Thanks all for the nice comments.
