When I saw this on Twitter, I “knew” it was a faked photo. So happy to see I was wrong because it’s an amazing image. If you want to read some behind the scenes stuff about the shoot, check out this article.
How it was shot: a climber and a total solar eclipse
I used to climb at Smith (late 1970’s) did Monkey Face numerous times including sleeping in the back of the head cave. One of the scarier free rappels around getting off that thing.
He should now focus on capturing a Lunar Eclipse! The night shot on the blood red Moon would be sick!
