Pictures from the Alps

[Blunkka]

Hello again,

These are pics from my one week skiing trip to Madonna di Campiglio in Italy. I was lucky because most of the days were sunny that fits quite well for this kind of landscape photography, and of course it's more fun to ski on sunny days

Awsome! I can't believe you all guys, you allways find stuff to photograph. I've been out for several days now and can't find anything interesting

Thanks guys,

The Alps were a really nice environment for two reasons. One, no matter where you point you're camera you always get a nice landscape in your view. Two, all that snow casts lotsa light so you basically get to use as high f-stops as you want. I actually ran into problems when trying to get some portraits of people with low f-stops because my camera min shutter speed is 1/2000.

In mu opinion best times for landscape photography are sunrises/sets. Tho you'll need to carry a tripod around. Usually it's worth taking a trip further your own neighbourhood. Atleast I find nothing to photograph here, not even reference photos for texturing.

Really nice shots and credit where it is due! One thing i love about photographing nature is that in actual fact you dont need to do an awful lot to get a great photograph.

I am however very impressed with the scale in these images, something you rarely see, although im sure you'll feel the environment felt a hell of a lot bigger in real life.

Which camera did you use?
