I've been wanting to give the 100-400 a go on climbing shots and this place has the perfect setup. Where the cllimbing is, its right next to a steep bank so you can shot side on to the climbers at about half height.
Some of the results...

    nice job mushy - these really came out well. I really like the implied intensity in the 2nd - the red face shows how hard she must be working and the white hand implies the tightness of her grip!

    (and the dog is cute :D)

    Cheers Prezwood, its not a bad place for a late afternoon session, but it can get very hot and as its a round bowl it doesn't cop much breeze.
