Student, David Tarcza, climbing the 65" rock climbing wall outside of Eppley Recreation Center. I'm a huge fan of this photo because of all the extra belay ropes displayed around the wall.

Tarcza checking back with his belay holder for the "ok" to climb. I also like this photo because it reminds me of the Old Spice commercials. and I feel like I could turn this into an advertisement.

Tarcza pulling himself up after reaching for the next stone as he climbs. For this photo, I stood on a table farther away from the wall and held the camera up as high as I could without falling to get a straight on perspective of him climbing instead of an underneath shot.
