    Whoa! Right – “when we stop taking risks, we stop living life.” Great collection to illustrate that!

  2. mich says:

    Helluva assemblage of pix, ol’ bean.

  3. I like what Jane Adams said.

  4. Phil Strawn says:

    Those pictures give me the “puckers.” The one with the men sitting on the steel beam is the worst. I’ve taken a fair share of risk; some didn’t go well. We have a treasured saying here in Texas; “Hold my beer and watch this.”

  5. If I have to take those risks…Jesus call me home!

  6. Pure Glory says:

    Life definitely has risks, some that we see and some we do not see!

  7. Terrific, Mitch.

  8. I may not have it tomorrow
    I have only Now

    All the images are a great collection of a reminder to be courageously living life’s every moment

    ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

    Loved the Quiet Spot ♥️

  9. I’m with Martib Luther King and Jane Adams.

  10. Discover and Explore says:

    Yes. Yes. Yes!

  11. The ones taking the most horrifying risks are the workers building these phenomenal structures up to the clouds!

  12. Dr. King was a wise man!

  13. Rhonda says:

    I love the quotes and the pictures, Mitch! Though some of them made me quesy due to my fear of heights 🙂

  14. Antique Works says:

    Very different, unique and neat pictures Mitch, I like them.
    Enjoy the weekend and the blessings from our Heavenly Father.

  15. Jon says:

    This post was a real cliffhanger, Mitch. I think I want bigger cables on the Skylodge suites in Peru.

  16. Jeff Cann says:

    Well, most of those photos make me nauseous.

  17. Patty Moore says:

    These pictures are astounding. Even more so is to wonder how on earth some of those structures were built. Who, and how?!

  18. Thotaramani says:

    I agree with you Mitch! Time is precious. Your collection of pics is beyond imagination 🤩💐

  19. K.L. Hale says:

    As always, inspiration for my soul! Precarious! I look at these and think, “Had someone NOT taken the risk…would we see the amazing product?” I’m risky, Mitch. NOT as risky as I once was due to physical limitations. Perfect pics and quotes!

    My favourites are the spiral staircase in the abandoned palace and St. Pancras Hotel. Absolutely gorgeous!
