Photos by girldrifter

Part of my newly found aspiration to become a decent photographer ... this is for photo assignment #1...

From the distance, on our way to Sassolungo.

Hovering above our refugio, just waiting for sunset...

Blah blah, another profile shot, blah blah. I did take Subtle's advice and wore a magic beanie-like thing on my head for bouldering. And sure enough- just look at me go!!

Paolo75 pulls through this killer first-move on a problem in Fonti. I'm a terrible photographer newbie, but after seeing the awesome pics on here I'm trying harder ... so, constructive criticism would be good (please don't be mean!) if you've got a sec!

Rodion, winding up for a go in Fonti. This girl is so determined. Every time she got bucked off (which wasn't that often) she'd grit her teeth until she could grind it out.

View from the top of Via Tunnel Diagonale, right up the Val di Mello valley to the Alps...

Paolo75 starting a problem in Fonti, absolutely wrecked from 3 days of hard bouldering.

On the last slab of Tunnel Diagonale on a beautiful day in Val di Mello, Italy.

Two unknown climbers in Presles... if you look closely you'll see that the top belayer is very busy taking pictures of the scenery (ahem...not that I can talk...)

Taken after a great day of climbing, the sun shining on the crag, hungry, tired...!

Torre Trieste with 40cm of snow in the morning light. Took this photo from the deck of the refugio with coffee in hand.

following the lead of Paolo75 on Topomaniac in Presles, France. Photo was taken by Paolo. I am pretty sure this is the 5th pitch. I highly recommend this route - wonderful exposure, nice moves and every pitch is exiciting in a different way!
