Rockclimbing in Indian Creek, Utah

peace, baby!

Great optical illusion -- took me a few moments to realise which way was up. I also like the way the rock climber provides a splash of colour.

I like it--it makes me feel woozy.

I love these rocks. Very good shot.

VERY vertical point of view. Beatifull

nice one.

 

Are you tied off above him on the same route or do you have yourself out and away from the rock with a human tripod of sorts?

 

Wish we saw more climbing photos here at Photo.net.

i'm hanging on a rope fixed to the same route's anchors. the wall on the left enabled me to get out away from the crack. it was still pretty gymnastic. jam hand in crack, push with left foot, try and hold camera still, don't drop remaining coiled rope on Micah, etc...

 

thanks for the comments all!

Believe me: You can ALWAYS count on the last shot of the roll!

Great vantage point! Wonderful colors. Having the horizontal perspective of the ground below creates an excellent contrast to the vertical wall. Kind regards, m.

Hey Joe,

Nice bit of work. I really like the perspective. It's too bad you didn't use a reflector or some fill flash so we could see the climbers expression though... (yes, I'm pulling your leg)

I just shot my first climbing photos in about two months and remembered "climbing photos are *hard*!"

Climb on!

Excellent shot. The scabs on the elbows show how desperate the whole endeavour is. Am really impressed with the composition, seeing as how you managed to keep your feet out of the 20mm's angle of view.
