Pics from ski trip

[Blunkka]

These are some of the photos that I took on our trip to the Alps.

A panorama shot (quite big)

[Belgarion]

Wow. That's really awesome. I wish I could go out there. Maybe someday. Great pics, especially 09. Reminds me a lot of Ansel Adams.

Great pics!

Really inspiring stuff!

Reminds me a lot of Ansel Adams.

don't know but I can't see the resamblence here

none the less great shots have you been to the italian/french part of the alps or how does it come you have the sea on the fotos?

[Belgarion]

That shot reminds me of this one.

I like how the clouds obscure the peaks of the mountains.

[Blunkka]

Never seen pics by Adams before this but I see what you're meaning.

have you been to the italian/french part of the alps or how does it come you have the sea on the fotos?

That sea picture is actually from the Baltic sea. We traveled from Helsinki to Rostock, and after that we sat over 20 hours in a bus driving through Germany to France. It's quite annoying to sit that long in a bus but it's a lot cheaper than flying + you get to see pretty nice landscapes.

cool route! have you anymore pictures of the travelling itself?

[Blunkka]

Sadly no. We only had a few short stops and I didn't bother taking pictures through the window of a moving bus as they would have sucked anyway.

Infrared?

Just picked up a Hoya R72 for my Canon (gasp I know, I have a Canon that can actually do infrared...) Powershot A620 {Hacked Raw of course}.

Looks nice.

that's just bw not ir

[Belgarion]

Phopojijo, I suggest you look up Ansel Adams and read about him. His photos are phenomenal. Probably the most well known photographer in history.

Odd, wonder why the trees tend to pop in frame then.

[e-freak]

snow is the frame.

If you want to know about Anel Adams I suggest you read his "beginner" books like - "The Negative", "The Positive" or "The Camera" and so on. He writes a book about one topic as thick as other books are who claim them selves "everything about fotography"

They're just covered with snow. The trees in the foreground don't pop at all.

[Phopojijo]

Yea I realize the trees in the foreground don't pop at all -- I was referring to the ones just in front of the rock.

The rest could have been clouded, removing the infrared blooming.

But yes I realize it's not infrared.
