For skiers, there's nothing like miles upon miles of virgin snow to slice through. The soliatary figure gives the scene scale. I had toyed with the idea of this one in colour, but the only colour was a slightly blue sky. [View is towards Mount Assinborne (left hand side of frame) from below the Continental Divide Chair at Sunshine Ski Resort]

Where Earth and Sky meet and kiss. Beautiful smooth snow and fluffy clouds...and yeah, the skiier makes it all real. I can't imagine this one in anything but black and white.

The photo is really good. You know I am a fan of b&w. I think the frame distracts from the beauty of the photo on this one though.

This one is quite beautiful just the way it is...no color is needed to make it's statement.

I love the black and white, and I miss skiing so much. I was basically a natural at it and I loved it from my first try. I am headed over to Southern California in a couple weeks though and I'm sure I will be able to find some time drive up north a little bit and get some skiing in. You have inspired me.
