Shots on the fly

Many might call me ridiculously stupid or foolish for doing this, but back in February, I took my d40 (camera) and my nice new lens careening down the ski slopes of a fabulously snowy mountain. I couldn't help myself, it was just so darn fun. It was totally worth it too. While I didn't get any shots that will make sports illustrated, I managed to keep my falling to one small spill and got some keepers. The pictures are mostly of my wife and coworkers.





And this was our fantastic group that went.


As you can see, the scenery was phenomenal from the top of the mountain. I managed to catch it in a few pictures, but best of all, got a nice panorama of the snow laden trees at the top. Without blowing it up, you dont really get the amazingness of it, but this will have to do.
