Since I work on mountain as a snowboard instructor, and showed the school some of my super pipe pictures, I was asked to take some promotional type shots for the school last weekend..... here are a few of my submitted shots:











A couple looked blown, but having checked on the histogram on CS3, it says they are not.  I had a huge deal getting the WB set right, and the exposure to suit the weather (sunny then cloudy then snowy etc).....

well your wb seems pretty well on to me Smile

only issue i have as far as them being promotional shots is there's nothing to really say 'teaching' to me, other than the sign ;)

Good point Jon re. the teaching aspect.  Both the skiers are wearing the snowschool uniform however, but you are right, it doesn't scream 'teaching'.

The others are just promo for the hill / snowschool in general.

Great set of images, I really like the 4th one in the set.

I wish I was back in the mountains with my board!
