Looking Up & Coming Down

Pointe Dume Beach, CA

* 6-22-06 *

At the pointe yesterday, I was watching some climbers thru-out the
day. I was talking with this girls friends (who had just done this
for the first time that day) as they were holding the ropes for her.

I think he called her "Cali", altho I could be wrong in saying that
is her name... Either way, she knew just what to do & came down very
quickly on her descent. They were ending their day & so she had some
extra gear to bring down with her, but that didn't slow her down.

I know the Pelican Patrol would've been a good entry for the Unoffical
Transglobal Thursday Challenge, but I liked this one better, so we'll
just say that you can pick which ever one you like bestest, howz that?

This image http://www.pbase.com/purpod/image/62281151 will give you an
idea of just how high up these climbers are when they start descending ~

Nice texture and color on the wall and the shadow is very nice. Vote.

Boy, I bet she'd like a copy of that picture. I hope you gave the ropes a try!

That's too high up for me to look :>) Nice tones, good clarity.
