This is one my favorite pictures, taken about half-way down smith's rock (the rock-face to the left), a volcanic formation in Oregon - a lone climber standing at at a cliff-edge directing his friends who are climbing up this 800 foot free-standing spire of rock called monkey face (what you see here is the head - the 'face' is to the other side). Monkey face, the rock and the climber are framed in the background by Mt Scott, a dormant volcano.

Was gonna say looks like a fist. But monkey's head works for me :D
very nice!
i would have tried it in b&w too.
revealed: shall we call it the monkey's fist instead?
tr: thanks. like your b&w suggestion.. it probably would have come out better.
possible -- you could always try fiddling with the image :-D
tr: see, *that* never works. in this case, the rock wall to the left loses all its definition
that's a great picture.
I'm with TR on the B/W suggestion.
but obviously seeing your comments adobe isn't the best way to go about it
