VOTING CLOSED: Skiing Photo Contest - 2005-06 Ski Season

[riverc0il]

It seems to me that kbroderick is the clear winner anyway so if the other entrants want to "concede" that will be fine too. If anyone feels slighted though, don't hesitate to let me konw and I'll re-run the poll. Please advise.

glad i decided to check in on this thread! i wasn't checking out the thread cause i already figured kbroderick was the run away favorite. let the man have his prize, says i. cheers man, nice shot.

I agree- Kbroderick has a beautiful shot, I'd definitely say go for it and give him the prize. This was a certainly a fun contest you put together, Greg. Everyone ended up entered some nice photos.

Thanks to everyone for the compliments and/or votes; I didn't want to post anything here until after the voting closed. The shot is actually just off of Upper Crossover at Bolton Valley; I went out around sunset with Mike Nixon (the rider in the photo) hoping to get a few decent shots in the late-afternoon light. The particular location was his idea, and I think it would've been even better had the winter provided just a bit more snow (which it did after the submission window closed). For those that are interested in such things, I shot it with a Canon EOS 20D and a Tamron 19-35mm lens, and Mike did almost run me over in the outrun (I was laying on the snow to get the best angle).

Oh my god,...BOLTON VALLEY? I seriously had no idea that anyone except my family went there. Now that you've said that, I totally know where the picture was taken. That is awesome.
