	Voted 10/10	that cornice in the middle of your pic looks pretty insecure. Chris

	Hasn't voted	That's why I'd not try walking on the edge:)) Anyway after a few days of heavy snowfall the whole ridge was pretty unstable:/

	Voted 10/10	Thanks a lot. Maybe I will try next year. Seems to be too hard for winter climbing for me.

Outstanding photo!

Voted 10/10

I have been crazy about ridge traverses lately. Still, I would never venture on this one. Did anyone ever walked this line?

	Hasn't voted	In fact in the season when conditions are good it tends to be crowded, it's very airy but not that difficult. Even on my pic you can see a man and a rope, but they withdrew due to too much snow and slow progress. Come to Europe and have a try:-) cheers Witek

sepia??

Voted 9/10

As great as this photo is, I have to question the lighting.. was this done through your camera??

Posted Oct 12, 2007 4:26 am


	badyl	Re: sepia??
	Hasn't voted	Everything was done only with my camera (and not a good one to be honest). None of the photos I posted here was touched by any computer software. Mainly because I have no knowledge about enhancing the quality of photos on computer, my knowlegde about photography is also limitted. I just had been lucky to be in the wright place in a perfect moment, believe it or not. I hope it sated your curiosity...
