I Ski

Here is Jonathan skiing at Alta. There are a few aspects to this photograph that I like. What i am trying to do is never take an ordinary "magazine" picture. I really feel like anyone could take most of those pictures. Where I am playing right now in my pictures is a contrast in light and shadow. More to come with that in mind but this one is really just a show of the way light falls on snow. Never any harsh lines but rather the smoothest transitions. Jonathan on the other hand is disrupting that and his shadow is harsh and distinct. Somehow he is at home in the snow though. ALmost as if the snow has welcomed him in to shake things up.
