DA21 goes skiing

PhilippeG · 04-02-2009, 04:25 PM

The DA21 being so small and light, it was able to take it along with a K100 in a small backpack while I was skiing in Chamonix (french Alps).
Oh boy, is it difficult to capture landscapes with snow under a shiny weather!
I also found it difficult to adjust the contrast in PP for the same reason.
What do you think?

A real great set. Of the three, the 3rd is my favorite. Every element of the picture adds interest and the color and contrast is well done. The second seems to have just a little to much empty sky for me.

I like the first and last.
The person in the first shot is a reall addition.
great shots...

Great photos, you did a great job on a difficult subject! I like the position of the skier and the dramatic effect of showing the view down into the valley in no. 2! Perfect composition!

Thank you for your comments!
I tried a different crop for the second picture, do you think it looks a bit better?

I also like the third shot, very very nice. I do like the new crop on second picture much better, but the third shot is the one I would hang on my wall.
