April Powder Brings May Flower?

…or something like that. Today. Was playing around trying to make some satisfying photos… beyond the brag, beyond controversy about crowds, sometimes, it’s just about the desire to create, and share.

Playing around with composition and post production tones.

Playing around with cropping.

thanks for the uptrack today, it was sweeet eh? oh yeah, much better parking too.

He he. We realized those Subarus take up a lot of room and are hard to park so we left more space (grin).

Hey Lou –

these are nice shots, as are many I’ve seen here. I know there are lots of photography sites describing dos and don’ts of ski photography, but I’d be curious to know your take on the subject.
What did you do on these shots? What are the “rules” you follow and sometimes break?

Just an idea for a future post maybe.
