The Cyclops Boulder, V5. Such a fun problem, a bit of a sketchy topout!! |

Just fantastic! Great problem, superb setting, top photo. Does it go straight up or to the right? |

Nice shot, but I think id like it more if the edges of the boulder were not slightly cropped. |

Credit must go to Jessie Davis for taking the photo, and for showing me around the place. A clear highlight from 3 weeks in south island, and I'm not even into bouldering! Adrian |

Obviously a great location and great bouldering to be had, but from a photographic perspective ...
I like the off-centreing of the theme boulder to show distant vista.
The action and the ground yet to be climbed tell a 'story', [and re Westie comment above I think it likely that the route goes up rightward due the evident scuffing on those pockets, though it may also have a LH variant!].
I gave the low star marks because the cropping top, left, and bottom crueled (for me), what would otherwise have been an excellent shot. |

looks bloody brilliant there!
minor point.....for bouldering shots it's nice if you can get the mat in shot as it adds perspective/context. |

obviously my rating is slightly biased.......
re: everyone's comments - i must say that a) i didn't really frame this wit any great
intentions/expectations i just pointed and clicked so needless to say i was pretty
happy with the results! and b) there was no mat involved so not much point in
including the base of the boulder (floor). I tried walking backward to get the whole
rock in but really couldn't be bothered.
glad you liked it. cheers adrian that was a good (albeit hot!) session at the Hill |

I reckon it's top bro!
I'd go there tomorrow if I could and look for that
great shot, what a mad looking problem.
You're a lucky cat! |

You simply need to submit one to Mike at his 'contact Chockstone email' and he will put it up ... |
