Of all the rock-climbing photos in this challenge, I like this one the best. The pose really shows off the strain of the climb.

Great shot. Can actually see the climbers face instead of backside as in all the other climer shots I've seen. The muscle tension and stretch of his limbs show the "action" well. Love the wall color/texture. Good luck.

Awesome photograph! I love the action in it and the bulging muscles! :-) The position of the sun is great and I love the color of the rock
