Point well taken. I have yet to snowboard or ski in my life but I would like to try. That aside, this is one heck of a nice photograph. Take the skier out and it is a beautiful winter landscape shot. Take the landscape out and it is a beautiful action shot. It has everything and the perspective is amazing. Now I think there is nothing left to be said :). A 10~

I agree. Was this edited any? If not, it is quite the perfect capture. The cloud on the bottom looks almost surreal.... Anyway, excellent job!

Wow excellent picture. agree with Torque. landscape is great and the skier just adds. beautiful lighting. if you dont mind may i ask were it is?

taken at sunshine village, banff, canada.

the pic was actually taken by my brother (thats me in the shot) so the only editing was to fix a few little lighting and colour issues.

Perfectly timed capture. Airborne skier perfectly located in front of the sun. Was this just an on-the-fly shot or did you set it up to be against the sun? Great effect!

i tried to set it up like that, obviously a bit of chance was involved because my humble S30 only has about 3 fps drive, so i was pretty lucky to get the skier exactly in the sun.

Excellent!!!

I will have to show this picture to my best friend, she's a skii fanatic. I also love this picture.

i saw a snowboarding pic on this site so im just going to make my point that skiing is better. nothing left to be said "
Amen to that!

Never give up your 2 boards for 1, nothing left to be said.

yeah, skiing is definately better.

wut a freakin lie! snowboarding is so much better and always will be, no matter wut u say! and the picture of the snowboarder, that one is so much better, it may not be the closest pic, but still...

I agree with snowboardergirl- snowboarding is harder, better, and all around sweeter. I'm gonna have to upload a snowboarding pic I took. Watch for it!

Hey, first off, i hafta give you some serious credit on your amazing photos. I especially love your long exposure ones.

as for the skiing/snowboarding issue, i'm glad you think skiing is better, but i'm sorry to inform you that snowboarding OWNS the mountains. and I've been to sunshine village, a beautiful mountain, too bad i didn't get a powder day though, it looks great.
