Middle of the week, you should get away (22 HQ Photos)

Narnia was my first thought for #15

#15 I believe is Meteora in Greece

That's a boat dolly genius, not a barbell. Some people really scare me……

Do want!!B)

Hey, I submitted that photo! First photo to make TheChive! YAR!

Chive the fuck on! You guys just made my day!

lol my bad didnt see it at full res haha

a lot of these "HQ" photos aren't really….

I thought it was a very lovely story, and you tell it so well, with such enthusiasm.

You're right, and this person is standing on what is known as the "diving board". I stood on it and my legs got a little weak.

Just yesterday someone fell (or jumped) off Half Dome and plunged 4,000 feet to their death.

It was the second death on Half Dome this year and the 15th for the year for the entire park. BTW, that opening in the rocks underneath the "diving board" leads to a ledge that you can barely sit on with your feet dangling over 2,000 feet of air. It's a freaky and exhilirating experience.

One of the coolest things i've ever done was to stand right there on top of half dome. My friend took out his iphone just before we went down the to check if he had service and dropped it down the ropes. The phone skidded all the way down in between the two cables and broke in half at the bottom. One half was at the bottom of the ropes, the other continued down 2,000 feet to the valley floor

Every time I see a picture of someone standing really close to a ledge…instant sweaty palms.

Yeah ruins what would otherwise be an awesome wallpaper. =/

That's the hand of the LORD

I like how she's pretending that she's not paying attention to the camera.

I hear ya'. I work in NYC and I miss the days when I was a kid and we would take family trips to places like this.

those are my 4 favs too. very colorful and warm <3

#7 is the narrows in zions park utah. i think. and #21 is natural bridge, va. i think. also, chive, can i get like a gold star or something for always answering stuff? or maybe a signed photo of LG?

Middle Earth ?

I thought so too.. But I am a born and raised ny'er and I don't initially recognize any of these building my guess is east side going from 65th street uptown
