It was kind of hard to see the whole photo at a different angle than what its edges suggested so I made a little frame from an old envelope with a large window, and framed the photo aligned with the vertical trees.
The guy is leaning back against the cliff face, but I hope he had on slippery clothes and non-slippery shoe soles for creeping out there!
