While the butt shots are interesting, I agree with Andy faces would have been better. I've never watched snowboarding, looks like fun for the young.

I would have loved to do that as well, but the position of the sun was just not working with me. I tried a few shots looking up the hill (Due South) and came up with results like this...

I thought maybe you couldn't stand on the other side for some reason, didn't even think of the sun direction. They are still cool shots!

Even on the other side of the trail I would have been shooting uphill to get their faces, directly south, into the sun. Anybody have any tricks to overcome this problem?

Thanks,
