Taken 4 miles outside downtown Boise. These basalt cliffs face west across the Boise River and the Oregon Trail. These are very popular with area climber. Last Saturday was a gorgeous day and all I had to do was wait. . . .

Good time of day. Nice blue sky and good lighting on the rock

wow, that looks a bit scary...

Good shot! 9

the climber makes ths shot! One of my favorites this time around

Great pic. The vertical striations lead towards the top of the frame. The climber seems almost an aterthought and gives dimension to the image. Have you thought of a really tall version, like a panorama only vertical?

Plenty of intensity. I like this.

These are wonderful rock-formations. Where? Wherever they are they are quite
something. I like the fact that you let some sky in, I suppose you could have lowered the shot and it would have been all grey, but you didn't. Wo is the brave
climber?

i like the colors and the fact that there is a climber to give it scale to me that really make the difference

Nice textures and I like the placement of the climber too.

This cliff has some good texture. A closer crop to the top of the cliff could add impact .

VERY good. And the person in red cooperated nicely for added interest.

Not technically parallel, but still rates high in my book!
I would have cropped a bit off the sky, it's too much blue and detracts from the climbers red shirt which is what really makes this photo a success!

love this...i am finding the entries like yours with parallel in nature to be the most compelling, interesting and worthy. i love the way your parallel lines deconstruct at the top and i like your climber in red...adds a needed sense of scale (and a nice spark of color).

Is that real. That's pretty wild...
03/18/2004 12:43:18 PM
really nice shot...the color contrast makes this pop out and grab you...I hope that climber made it :)

The person climbing adds a nice touch to this photograph. Nice shot!
03/17/2004 05:30:21 PM
I almost missed the climber - a great focal point - though seems a little soft in focus. Beautiful rich sky colour and cloud texture.

Nice subject, and the climber is a nice detail.
03/17/2004 08:08:33 AM
Good on you for adding the climber... my first reaction was WOW... give the cliff good scaling. Perfect technicals; focus and lighting. 9

Very nice indeed. If it werent for the person climbing, I would think this would be a macro, gives it perspective. Nice shade of blue and the shaddows on the rocks are great. Good job.
03/17/2004 02:46:36 AM
Nice picture, the lines of the cliff really do add to this photo. A little sharper focus would have been nice.
