Arctic Outflow in Panorama!

It's crazy, but Shawna and I went up to Pano yesterday to practice some action shots! Yes, right in the middle of an arctic outflow! It was about -20C up there between 12.30pm and 2pm - very cold, but very beautiful! One has to take advantage of the occasions when a sitter is available - how we suffer for our art! ;D

All photo's were taken with a polarizing filter on the lens. Here, in no particular order, are some of my favourites from the outing (more will be posted on my flickr page later today):

The light was really difficult at times, with low very bright sunshine ... here's one saved by B&W:



There were a few speed demons out enjoying the hard, fast conditions:



Up, up, and away!



Gorgeous views:



And, last but not least, my first action triptych:

  1. Wow! These are great! Number 1 stopped my eye immediately. Very well done. Congrats! Sorry you had to be cold to get them. Yikes! I'm on Fahrenheit -20 sounds very very cold to me.
