I had originally intended to shoot the video on abseil over the lip of the mighty roof, such that the climber would be seen coming towards to camera, upside down. Would have been a cool angle, but with the wind as bad as it was I couldn't get stable, despite being anchored from two directions. The compromise was to shoot from a nearby block, but as you can see, as the climber approaches the final roof moves they are backlit against the sky, causing contrast issues. Sigh. Arh well, I'm having as much fun filming as climbing. If anyone else is planning a hard, picturesque lead, let me know! |
