i had a little fun with computer art and i thought i would share.
on the following page are canyoneering photos i have turned into
"sketches" and one animated sketch. most are from a recent may trip,
the first few (poison spring) from march 2005.

just a little something different....

thanks rockG(mind the abbreviation?), i had fun with that animated one, had to reorient/crop all of the images, imageready was nice for this animation. i may redo it to make the background move less, but, i suppose it works in that slightly jerky way. i really like the way the rock lines came out on the last rappel in pandora's, too. what a great canyon! btw, i thought the alternate exit upcanyon was pretty cool as well. those views from high up were sweet!

Wow awesome shots and angles dude!

How much does it cost to get into canyoneering anyways? Does anyone give any "classes"? I always wanted to get into it, but could never find people to go with to learn from.... any advice?

cost? well, let's say it's a lot less than skiing.

as far as classes go the ACA(american canyoneering association) does. You should talk to Shaggy (eric) about it, you can private message him, or he might just pipe in here. but some folks around here do take noobs out.

I've got rappelling gear, a harness and a rope with some carabeeners, just hate to go out alone.... cutting my own hand off doesn't sound too fun. :?
