Climber

Silhouette of a rock climber ascending higher in the Garden of the Gods park, Colorado Springs, CO.

I've always loved silhouette shots. Seeing the sky and the outline of what the subject is.

Since cameras aren't as amazing or advanced as our eyes, its often tricky to balance light and dark areas within the same photos. In this photo, I wouldn't have been able to get the clouds and sky and the color and detail of the climber/ rocks (the rocks are red btw). I therefore chose to close up the shutter and get the shadow. I like it, I hope you do too!

Great job climber!!
