In the first image two rock climbers start up a spire in the early afternoon in the Garden of the Gods. In the second image you can see they made the climb successfully.Both images were shot with a 70-200 mm f/2.8L zoom telephoto on a tripod.
In the first image the tree branches are a bit distractive in the foreground, but at least they're out of focus. The back lighting on the second image added drama, but it also made it difficult to bring out shadow detail.
