Be careful not to look too closely at these if you have a fear of heights; you will find yourself getting a severe case of vertigo. As much as you might like to believe they are photoshopped, they definitely are not. Having a great love for his city of Detroit, Dennis Maitland wanted to show people a new perspective; something different from the typical tourist shots, so he proceeded to climb. Going to mostly abandoned buildings he would get to the highest point possible, sit on the edge, lean over and shoot.
Maitland says, ”When I started this series, in August, I was afraid of heights and I was afraid to climb ladders past 10 feet. After a few times sitting or standing on ledges, I found myself getting more comfortable with it. I soon realized how to tune everything out and just focus on getting a steady handheld shot. Now, when I go into a building, I’m always looking up and for stuff to climb. The series has pushed me out of my comfort zones and helped expand my creative boundaries. I’ve been able to concur my fear of heights and now I crave the adrenaline.”

Check out a hill so full of crosses that they literally lie on each other. You have to need a lot of prayer power to have a hill that full of crosses.
The hill has over 100,000 crosses and when the Pope visited he claimed the area as a place for peace, love, sacrifice, and hope. It should be considered a revered place as it was destroyed on several occasions. It was razed to the ground and garbage thrown on it many times, but that did not stop the Lithuanians from recreating the hill of crosses.
