Climbing Helmets on a Granite Ledge

Several climbing helmets rest on a granite ledge, with straps and rope loops cutting across rough stone. Shells catch clean highlights, while small carabiners and a distant rock face add harder edges around the equipment.

Build each helmet from its rim and vents, then follow straps toward the rope. Granite pieces sort by cracks and grain; leave the broad sky and distant rock until the gear has fixed the foreground. Helmet vents, buckles and rope shadows give small pieces a sharper identity than their shared outdoor colors.
