On the shore of Taiwan's Sun Moon Lake is an observation tower dedicated by Chiang Kai-shek to the memory of his mother. On this day, the view inside was more fun than the view outside.
I used a super-wide-angle lens (18mm on the 35mm camera, equivalent to 12mm on most DSLRs) to widen the shot, so I could include the steps leading up the tower to frame the central portion.
Looks pretty good in Lightbox too.

I like the inclusion of the people. They establish a sense of scale.

Thanks Charles! That's my family up in there. My wife climbed the highest, there at the center of the frame. Her outstretched arms always seem to me to have such unbridled joy, it cracks me up.
