Superb photo once again Orangeoverhang. Always a consistent high quality result!!
Great work, as usual! Damn, I miss the Grampians!
Awesome shot Neil, brilliant colour, action and scenery. I wish I spent more time in the gramps over Easter...
love the color but was this tilted? the quick draw on his harness makes me suspicious.
tilted? check out the horizon. Gorgeous photo as usual.
Orangeoverhang submits another orange overhang! Love seeing the old dads out killing it. Excellent.
Damn that's nice
I need to get down there. Damn fine looking rock!
people like "sed" crack me up.
It looks tilted.......but not to over emphasize the overhang...if anything it plays it down some. I think the horizon is just ramping up into some hills that give the effect. That is all conjecture...Awesome shot, excellent color, and great composition.
good photo
it looks bolted
It is all trad. Mostly medium sized wires and a few small cams.
This photo is so well done. A tough climb, a hard climber, beautiful light... really fantastic work Neil.
Weedehhhh
Awesome. Go team Oz.
Goes to show how deceiving a photo can be. Sun light has made the crack vanish. Would be a sweet climb. I'd put veggie mighe on that.

great color
RC.COM has this weird cult following of photo pessimists. EVERY photo has to be guilty until proven innocent. Has it been photoshopped? Tilted? Blah, blah. Get over it and enjoy the photo.
ullr i think that the "tilted" remark is not so much a crack on the photo as it is a comment. I have not noticed many of my photos were tilted until someone asked. Its good to have comments that may help improve the photographers pictures...(even if it is orangeoverhang and he dosent need it!) Great shot. What i like most about it is the lack of chalk it really makes the shot look clean!
It's usually the way it goes: no bolts, no chalk. No chalk, better pictures. Not to say A equals C, but I like the end result.
now if i was actually climbing the .12s.... oh well now i have more file footage to dream about!! sweeeet shot
Wow!
Great photo Neil.
just like watching a video, it makes my palms sweaty! Great job!
