Here is a series of pictures I took Dec 26th of two people sliding and taking a flip. The first snow was the 24/25 and there wasnt much snow so it was bumpy. I like the last 3 pictures but I thought I would share this series to show how it leads up to flip.

Lol! That's awesome!

They seem a little under exposed though. But I like the expressions in the last shot!

Well Chantal, it was late afternoon on a cloudy day so the light wasn't very good and even using a 105mm 2.8 lens its still a bit dark but considering the speed required to take the shots I think it turned out quite well :)

That's understandable. I believe you can even edit them a bit too to make them brighter (usually when I do that it brings more noise) They look sharp, anyway, so it's not such a huge deal :)

a tad bit more noise is added, but a reduced size could blur it up a bit to clear that out

Hello Pierre!
I also really like the last one better, with the expression the the faces and all!

@ Insignia, it's ok to blow out the snow, cause it'S white anyways.... if it'S any other color, than it's not realistic... it's no worse than having a studio portrait and white in the background :p

Hello Pierre, hope you're fine, didn't talk with you in a while.
I gotta vouch insignia, i think the pictures are underexposed(the snow looks grey).
Edited version looks fine.

I don't agree :( I think the snow looks much better and more fascinating with detail and blowing it out just blinds the eye and removes the details
