Ski Touring - Snowy Mountains

[Man Tripod]

A few shots from ski trip in late September at Kosciuszko National Park:

Low cloud around the Sentinel


Afternoon cloud over the main range.


Afternoon light on the western faces.


Mark skiing back up the hill after a nice run in spring snow.

Wow! you are lucky to experience this sort of tranquility. Kudos for carring a 5D while you were skiing!

The exposures and the dynamic range is brilliant!

I like the second the most but the composition of these leave me wanting to see more foreground or more background.

Fantastic. At first I thought it was NZ. I really like the last one. The perspective is neat.

Absolutely amazing work. Great to see another camera that is out and seeing the world!

Thanks for the feedback. Surenj - having another look i can see what you mean about my cropping (or overcropping) of photos. Cheers.

It's definitely a great part of Australia, and only 5hr drive from Sydney. Still plenty of snow down there at the moment also and easy access to the Main Range from Charlotte Pass.


A few more from that trip here if anyone is interested:

I do like the pano style crops here, it would be nice to see some more on each side of the images, but hey, can't have everything!

I have had a look thru you trip shots, looks like an awesome time, a bit cold, but still awesome. I quite like the creek cross one and the two with damien at Carruthers Peak with the skyline.

I was down that way this year for my first snowboard and i can definitely see myself getting down there again next year. Probably have to learn how to ski first tho before doing any of this back country stuff...

Cool shots! Wish I was there.

Must be nice to be on top of the world like that
