Was just flicking through my archive for some weird reason and noticed this one of Andy Pollitt, which I haven’t posted before. My bad. Andy sadly passed away in 2019 at age 56 from a stroke.
Andy was quite a legend, and I owe him a ton of gratitude for encouraging me as a young keen whipper snapper when I was dabbling in climbing photography — though several more years passed before I got serious, committed, and started my business.
Here Andy is on Serpentine (29), on Taipan Wall in the Grampians with Malcolm Matheson (HB), another legend, belaying. Taken in around 1991, this was a pretty early repeat of the route.
This pic so old it was even shot on #Kodachrome. #throwback #film
RIP mate.
