Ski Season 2012 has come to a close for me. Made it through a superbly fickle winter season and a surprisingly good spring season. Plenty of poor light, poor snow, and then sometimes just good skiing days limited the number of quality photos that I was able to capture. Plus, what fun is going skiing if you are stopping and freezing your hands to take photos all the time? I love to ski. If i can shoot a few decent photos out of all it, then so be it.
The following represent the best I was able to capture with an out-dated, but light, Nikon D60 with 18-55mm lens. Limited editing was performed on the majority of photos and they are all relatively un-posed. You may notice a lack of hucking, jibbing, helicopters, snow-machines, lift-accessed skiing, and the like. There is enough of that already. Its not about models, gear, clothing, and trying to get known. This is all about getting out in the wilds, finding beautiful un-tracked lines and skiing them with good friends.
May your summer be fantastic and short, let the fall bring a stable early-season snowpack, and lets have a stellar 2013 ski season.
Thank You,
Andrew Whitmore
