This has got to be the least picturesque climbing spot in the world yet this still looks awesome. Good job!

Haha, thanks. It is an awesome climbing venue, even if the scenery doesn't do it for you. I do actually quite like the urban back drop though, makes a bit of a change.

i think that the little island on the left looks a bit like talyendos

Lovely shot and well done to Will for the send. The background is a lot less depressing than when I used to go there in the early 90s!

Thanks! Yeah, awesome send by Will last night who finally put this to bed.

Sometimes better to wait before releasing the shutter...

I think this photo is just one of a series - subsequent pics capture the fall in all its terrifyingness...

Yeah, I do have some airtime shots too!
Check them out here: http://blog.dumby.info/?p=451. I'll add the photo two seconds after this one to my UKC gallery.

It's a great shot - full of drama. The sky and background contributes to it.

Captures Dumby and the moment brilliantly. Reminds me of this absolute belter from Cory Richards
