[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
An amazing place - parq nacional de Mt Perdido y Ordessa. Took this shot climbing the last part of the cliff. Tried to capture the feel and height of the situation. Keep in mind that I was hanging one handed from a peg to get this too...

I can say - you are a good "Extreme Photographer". Congratulations! Clear shot! The situation is very well captured - I do feel the height and the steepness of the rocky wall. Good job!

Great shot! If I were to really nit pic, I would have wanted the foot to have not been cut off. Your perspective does a great job capturing the feeling and height of the situation. I wish I were there with you, you have no idea how much I wish that.

Ouch, the steepness of this cliff and just hanging on to the pegs. My hands are sweating just looking at this image. The climber does not have a harness. Although the pegs are quite numerous, there is still a chance of slipping either with a hand or foot. What a stroll ! It seems guaranteed to stir anyone into a state of utmost awareness. Great shot.

u got a big guts Nick. This one truly barely climbing on rock without safety at all. The good side,... u were safe and you could uploading this pic for us :-))
