Around Split there are many boulder areas, this one name Lovrinac is very specific one because it is 1st boulder area in Split and more of that it is located in middle of graveyard.

I love bouldering...free climbing is a different monster. That takes more endurance than anything i've ever tried. No one wants to fall. Great shots. How is it manuevering thousands of dollars so many feet above the ground?

Superb, especially the last 4. The last one and the fourth from last are my favourites, they really capture the intensity, especially the last one with no ropes or aids and a long drop below.

OMG! Your climbing shots are UNREAL!

[sdsurfer]

Which body/lens were you using for these epic photo's?

[fslshooter]

Excellent!! I like 'em all but the last one's my favorite. I can't imagine how difficult it must be to get shots like these. Heck, I don't have the guts to even participate in the sport much less do it with camera gear. Well done and thanks for posting!

For all shot I use 20D + 17-40 or 24-70mm exept for last one I use OLYMPUS C7070 wide zoom because I have Underwater housing for it and since I go on top of rock above sea I took this one just to be sure I don't get wet by any case:)

P.S. this is how it looks from ground:

Hm not so easy but I ensure it with few carabiners and that's that.:) But of course it's not easy to do it because you always think what will happend if it fall or so:)
