    Lenscrazy,
    The second image is excellent. I love the contrast between the white trees and the blue sky. Beautiful.

    I agree!! Second one here as well. On the first one, I think that the degrees between light and dark are simply too great. And on the third, I would have preferred a shallower dof. But that second one! WOW! It's the color/monochromatic thing that seems to steal the show but then you add the amazing quality of the snow laden tree, and the view, and it is just a wonderful capture!

    Re: Ski Trip

    Wow! Some great scenery here. I like all three of the second post and #2 of the first. It may be just my monitor, but it looks to me that they all could use some levels adjustment, some more than others. And maybe a slight color boost on some.
    At any rate, nice shooting,
    Mark.

    Lenscrazy,
    Did you use a filter when you took these pictures? I think a UV filter may bring out the color a little more. The one with the kid skiing is nice. Nice capture of the motion with the blurred background.

    Thanks all,
    Yes they could use a little adjustments, with the snow and the bright sun makes for difficult exposure. I had a polorized filterbut it was for a different lens(my L lens that i left home) , so i just used the standard haze filter.
