Well, since you started with these guys...
And a black and white version
I'll let you guys decide which is the nicer. I like them both for different reasons, but I think I prefer the b&w version. I think it really shows the shadow detail. Of course, it will appear darker than it should if you're not using a calibrated monitor...
Cheers!

Not really towers, but I think they fit the theme... They'd certainly be tons of fun to climb, however, I didn't. Just wouldn't seem right, in my mind.

The jump across on Oak Creek Spire is rad! Makes the Mace step across seem as easy as stepping of a sidewalk. The belayer pays out a couple big loops of slack, and you take a few running steps and leap for good holds.

Here's another one in North/Central Patagonia
Piedra Parada. 500'. Overhangs all sides. Easiest route is sketch 5.9 chimney.
Damian on p.2 (.12a/b) of the route we put up called Swept by the Wind, 5 pitches, .13a/ish, in 2001. Follows left sky line up overhangs, then 4th class up ledges to top. Completely different vegetation on top. Sheep had never been up there...
P.4, 5.11
And on yet another tower toward the Atlantic coast near Trelew.
