Its main attraction is the impressive polarship FRAM (eng. "Forward") from 1892. It is said that the FRAM is the strongest wooden ship ever build. It was designed for Fridtjof Nansen's 1893 Arctic expedition and was supposed to freeze into the ice sheet and float with it over North Pole. Nansen's idea was to build a ship that could survive the pressure not by pure strenght but because it would be of shape designed to let the ice push the ship up, so it would "float" on top of the the ice. The ship had spent nearly 3 years baset in the Arctic ice. Next FRAM was used by Roald Amundsen in his southern polar expediton 1910-1912, the first to reach South Pole ( 14.December .1911, 100 years ago!!! ) Technical information: Canon 5D 12.9mpx, ISO 100, Canon 24-105L at 24mm, manual f=11, 13s each shot, manual focus at 3.8m, tripod (without QTVR pano head), 52 shots jpg, ICE stitcher"

Felipe Camacho, Project Manager for CSIfullmer was staying away from the window. The Cooper Building is a great old building without a single level surface... making the interior shots particularly challenging. I couldn't pass the opporturnity to hang out the 8th floor..."

I was lucky timing! My friend said I should shoot out the fire escape, not 'on' the fire escape... but... that's really just semantics. ;) He isn't a big fan of altitude. I will never forget his look of 'Dude, are you really making me get close to this window.'
