I was back in Merredin a few weeks back for a weekends climbing. It was cold but fine days, so it made for good friction and some nice shots.
All shots taken with either a 17-85 or 10-22.

As you can see there's not much else around here apart from farms.

Rub up against one of these prickly fella's and you'll know about it for a few days to follow

Thanks for looking, i know there are no full on dramatic shots taken while hanging off a rope, but sometimes you just take some snaps and join on in!:rofl
cheers for looking, feel free to comment and critique :thumb

that first one makes it look like that was some intense climbing! :huh But I like the 2nd shot w/ your shadow on the rock under the climber - cool.
