Sometimes the subject has to suffer for the photographer's art. That's about how I like to be belayed. For real. I hate rope and hate it being tight. A fall there is nothing but air and the more rope, the softer the catch anyway. Plus, the leader could always speak some french and grab the piece if trouble was a brewin. _________________________

Okay, one more today. Also easy, and unlike Dawn's, NOT convenient: _________________________ we're all living proof that nothing lasts
