World Cup Aerials @ Mt Buller

[devbobo]

Just got back from a week's skiing at Mount Buller here in Australia. http://dgrin.com/images/smilies/icon10.gif

The first round of the World Cup Aerials was held over the weekend. So I decided to try my hand at sports photography, which proved to be a bit challenging with the shutter lag of my F717.

Anyway, here's a few unprocessed favourites...

I am interested in any feedback good or bad.

Thanks Owen.

I like that composition as well, just wish he had a bit bit better form. But I think the negative space really works well here.

Thanks for commenting.
