This image reminds me of a film still from the movie The Thing. It's as if this adventurer is about to head off into the abyss and is prepared for whatever comes next. I love how you were able to see this scene develop in front of you, Alexiy. I'm sure you had to wait for the right moment to have the arms of the hiker stretched out like that.
