12c? That makes Action Directe look like a kid s birthday- route! I really love the colors of that pic! (oh and your dad s really impressive! I only do 5b to max. 6c (french grade))

JenElizabeth Featured By Owner Oct 7, 2011

hey well that's not too far behind! (i think thats around 11a)
i've climbed quite a few 12s but i mostly climb around 11c

as long as you climb its awsome!!

ExplodedPineapple Featured By Owner Oct 10, 2011 Hobbyist Digital Artist

It s only my way of thinking. I started climbing about one year ago and I always thought: Action Directe? This must be the hardest route in the world! Yeah, I think you already noticed that but I really love to overreact on some things. It s sad that there is no good climbingspot close to where I live. At the moment I m only climbing on artificial rocks (real mountains are to far away). It s kind of sad, ´cause they were desingned for spare-time climbers and there are only a few routes around 9-10 (But I don t think it s a real 9, I had almost no trouble with this one)
So I m waiting for next summer holidays! (climbing in croatia: awesome environment, very sharp and spiky rock with lots of holes and great edges (looks like someone played tetris out there!)It s very beginner-friendly out there but it s enough for an awesome climbing-day!)

JenElizabeth Featured By Owner Apr 13, 2011

megend Featured By Owner Apr 14, 2011 Student Traditional Artist

Incredible shot! Looks like it must've been difficult to shoot, were you also climbing? I love the sun burst and your dad's silhouette, but the framing of the picture overall really brings it together nicely, awesome work!!
