I have a slight discomfort with heights. It's not debilitating though it just takes me a minute to acclimate to anything over 15 ft, not to mention 150 ft. After a while my inner ear cooperates and I'm good. This was put to the test when shooting print ads for Navy Pier with the agency TwoxFour.

Navy Pier is an amusement park and convention center jutting out into Lake Michigan from Chicago. |
The whole project was shot over a couple days at Navy Pier on the rides with some additional shooting around the city for backgrounds. After many dozens of rotations, have an intimate knowledge of the inner workings of the Wave Swing and Ferris Wheel.
The view from the Ferris wheel is truly spectacular but let's just say that it's not a good place to be in a freak
wind and rain storm at night...
