Mushy,

You're right, you did get some good shots here The 2nd one is really nice. You might even want to look at cropping it tighter. A well exposed subject, trying to fit fat fingers into the small crevases, face looking for footholds, rope dangling. It's all good I also liked the silhouettes Very kewl!!


Thanks for sharing,
Steve

I agree with Andy on the last one. Although it has been about 20 years since I last set foot on a climb, the last one made me realize how beautiful it can be. Thanks for bringing back memories!

Very nice. Even though it's a short climb, the pictures don't let on.
The silhouettes are great--that last one being my favorite.

Looking forward to more.

Ian
