I have reached 17 photos and for the first time I got some shots approved without any fuss :O I dug out some older shots from last year late winter.
The problem with battery - it was -20 degree Celcius - I am tough guy but my battery was not. I burned 3 lithium batteries in 4-5 hours. There are some tips and tricks to keep them warm, but, I just took 3 and managed to shoot ok.
There was a submission problem with this colorful ratrak. It had a nice grafitti on the red part, but I had to remove it. even if it was not a trademark.
All in all, quite a success with more pictures getting approved just like that :)
About the trip - it was Stubai area in Western Austria. This is great place to go skiing, with thousands miles of ski routes, great range of hotels, good food and friendly people.
Good luck!
Tom

on February 12, 2009 It was cold, I was freezing nicely :) BTW the small size of pictures makes them less interesting. I think the last one is best, it is very subtle in full resolution, while the first is only ok. But, when small, the cloud makes the day. |

>I am geek. At 10, I learned to shoot, probably to balance my geekness.
I love manual, wooden cameras.
I try to catch the mood, the light and the feeling of the place. I hope to make THE photo one day :)
