    Hey, sweet! Is that gritstone? That last pic seems familiar, maybe I saw an article on the area in a magazine once. I think I like that one the best. It's always really tough to get decent climbing pictures without being up on the rock. Nice job at showing me an area I'd really like to vist though. I hear gritstone is amazing! :D

    Sweet. Sorry, I should have clarified, gritstone is a type of rock that apparently is local to the England area, I think. I've read nothing but praise about it, so that kinda makes me interested in getting over there and climbing sometime. :D

    Nice shots. The angle is nice and I can see how you'd be able to look down
    to the climbers for the face shots.
