Amazing! It's been a long time since I've seen such an photo. Gives me the mood for winter right now. Can't wait 'till it snows. Congratulations!

Wonderful sequence, perfect framing and a large view, many compliments!

where are the skier shadow(s) ? as we see you made shoots with reverse light; so the skier should be darker, have you got a huge reflector ? I wish to see a real background of this scene.

Yeah guys. I'm pretty sure that he spent hours faking the whole thing by getting a fake backdrop and finding the perfect sequence of a rider to fit that exact background, just so he could impress the people on photo.net. GENIUS.

 

The rider's shadow can be edited out by just not including them when you put so many frames together into one sequence.

 

Anyway, nice shots. I'd almost rather see just a single frame, but that's personal preference. I'd like to see some more shots backcountry and out of the park.

 

Oh, and Piotr Myrlak, it's called a fisheye.

diky vitku...

 

background is real, it normal sequance, 8 frame per second, and then is conect in computer together... sun was wery low, shadows are on other places behind me... just two shadows were on snow and this didnt look very good, i put two shadows out...

 

thans for comments very much

With that explanation, this wonderful photo becomes even better. You just added another criteria to my buying decision when I choose my new camera.... 8 frames per second or more. Edward Muybridge would be delighted!

Hi Dan, great image! Very dynamic. How did you get the subject so well illuminated while the sun was behind him? I don't think you used flash filling ... !

 

thanks

Very nice photo. I'm jealous because my camera doesn't have that high of a shooting rate! I think it's very unprofessional to assume that something like this was faked. The seeming unproportional characteristics are due to the wide angle lens! Unless you can prove without a doubt that it's a fake, comments like Piotr's do not belong here.

First off: Nice shot Dan.

 

c'mon guys! This is a nice example of an action sequence. With the right equipment, PLANNING the shot, and some stitching afterward it's very doable, and it'd take a LOT more effort to fake this then it's worth...

 

1) It's a fisheye lens, here are some clues: a) People can't jump around corners! b) notice the tilt of the mountains at horizon. c) shadows on right of frame are coming straight at lens, those on left are at right angle to lens.

 

2) If you've ever shot on snow you know that you get amazing fill light, especially if there's a snowbank behind you. In fact one of the tricks of shooting on snow is to make sure you don't underexpose because so much light (and white surfaces) trick even some of the best meters out there.

 

3) while he may have cloned out some shadows, I bet the low sun angle had most of the shadows off-frame.

 

Again, Nice shot.

Oops, should have said it's either a) a fisheye lens or b) he did a pan and stitch, using stitching software to morph the photos together...which nets a fisheye-like image.

 

So, which is it, Dan? Now I'm curious.
