Bouldering

I look at this photograph in terms of shapes.

i think the main thing about this picture is sharpness which reflects the sense of strong hard material . the simple direct composition framing makes it stronger . i like it .

not to be a fuss budget but the dark chalk bag ( I think it's a chalk bag ) against the white shorts is to overstate it, jarring....trying to use my imagination (chipping off rust) to visualize how this would look with dark chalk bag on black shorts or no chalk bag on white shorts.

 

Anyway fussing aside, it is a wonderful photo.

I find that dark something on his butt very annoying. Otherwise the composition's fine.
