What is this? Free-solo? Highball bouldering? Street boulder? Or, just climbing?

Swallow level, Dinorwig. The sun disappears over the far mountains, but there's just enough to illuminate this rock bolt.

Those round structures on the Brooklyn Bridge serve only one purpose: to prevent unauthorised people from walking up the cables. There's a door in the middle that can only be opened with a code for maintenance operations, by authorised personnel - and now you have a whole new notion of scale in this photo.
Estas estruturas redondas da Ponte de Brooklyn têm apenas um propósito: impedir que pessoas não autorizadas subam pelos cabos. No meio existe uma porta que só pode ser aberta com um código, para efeitos de manutenção por pessoal autorizado - e assim se fica com uma noção totalmente nova da escala desta foto.

I spotted this man climbing the steps in his crumbling apartment building. He looked very weary. There were many sights like this in Havana. Incredibly, thought, a quarter of the city has already been restored.

Climbing Rescue. © Copyright 2023 G Dan Mitchell.
A helicopter hovers next to a cliff above climbers in Yosemite Valley.
If you visit places like Yosemite often enough, the sight of helicopters doing rescue operations almost becomes a normal part of the experience. I saw this helicopter parked in a Valley meadow, surrounded by climbing rangers and crew, but I didn’t stop. Instead I went up the road a bit to photograph some spring trees. But soon I heard the thing take off and saw it rise up toward this face on the far side of the Valley, so I quickly swapped in a long lens and make a few photographs as it ferried climbers back and forth.
I’ve watched a few of these operations over my years visiting the park. We once witnessed a rescue off the top of a dome near Toulumne in electrical storm conditions, and a few years ago we got buzzed by a helicopter looking for a missing person in the backcountry. But the drama of “parking” the helicopter so close to the rock face caught my attention here. I kept thinking that it was great that there was no wind! If you look closely you can see a group of climbers on a ledge in the shaded vertical crack system near the right side of the photograph.

A woman slowly climbs stairs near the entrance to a tunnel, San Francisco.
The last time I took one of my quick trips to San Francisco to do street photography was months ago, and I've been planning recently to get back up there. Yesterday I finally found time. My photographic ritual there is pretty straightforward: I get up very early and catch a train up the Peninsula, typically arriving by about 7:00am. I travel light, with only the gear that will fit in a very small shoulder bag that doesn't really look like camera gear. I walk, and this time I wandered close to eight miles over the course of about four hours, traveling through some areas that are run down in interesting ways, through the center of the financial district, and into the Columbus and Grant and Stockton streets areaI.
I enjoy street photography for several reasons. To be honest, as much as I love the natural world, I also love cities, and even more I love wandering through them on foot. Photographically-speaking, they provide a rich lab environment for finding compositions, color, people, and more. Street photography is usually be done unencumbered by the bulky gear I often use for landscapes, and I love the spontaneous aspects of it. This photograph embodies a number of things that I look for when photographing street. I'm always attracted by color and patterns and light — and this scene just inside the end of a tunnel is full of all of this things.
