f2f, maybe im missing the other guy in the photo, or is that guy solo'ing that line? pretty gnarly
attached is the full-size crop. looks like there's a person belaying from an anchor on the left side?
i took the pictures because the avy conditions were strange to be climbing this so late in the day with avalanche danger rated at "high", but my friends tell me that the overhanging snowfield may have been bombed/cleared by patrol.
the route is apparently graded WI5, which is hard, but i wouldn't know: i'm not an ice climber myself. just snapped a few pictures of their situation to evaluate later. there were two groups approaching the climb as these guys were going.
ah completely missed the belayer in the original photo. aesthetic line for sure though.
That's a sick hunk of ice.
Here's some more climbing:

^ Did you shoot that vertical and crop it? Your shadow makes me think you shot it that way. Maybe I'm just holding the camera all wrong. What do I know...
Which explains the dark and light bands through the picture.
Cool pano! However, next time, shoot in manual mode or use the AE lock if your camera has it so that the exposure doesn't change from frame to frame. No dark/light areas in the resulting stitched-together pano that way.
Polarizer could produce a similar effect. Best not to use one when trying to create panos.
You get the same effect on an ultra wide angle lens. I almost always use it for creative effect to balance or draw attention to certain aspects of the composition. Some people really don't like the effect, I've grown rather fond of it.

From a few weekends ago. For a second when I saw this on the wheel, I thought aliens might have hitched a ride with me to Essex.

There was this cool thing at the Museum of Fine Art in Boston called "Endlessly Repeating Twentieth-Century Modernism" by Josiah McElhenry. Here are two shots of it I liked

freak, that is really organic looking. Strange. Maybe that ice was inhabited by an alien.
some cheesy tilt shift...
