A good friend of mine finally talked me in to using my camera on the mountain last weekend, and this was the result. :):

    Great shotthumb.gif

    I like the intersecting lines of the skis against the straight lines in the sky.

    Very cool shot. The color's a bit soft--maybe a tad bit more of saturation?

    Yeah it's been a long grueling process getting used to a new job... but just getting back in to shooting on weekends. Greatest part about photography is you can find a good shot wherever you are :)

    Actually I was laying down on the side of the kicker. The ski is much easier to shoot than the white mountains :) Plus is gives the viewer a sense of the "unknown" in how high the skiier is off the ground. Plus, I'm a yellow on blue fan :D

    Thanks all for looking
