So winter has arrived or not?
All reports from the French Alps would have you think that there is no skiing anywhere in Europe. Well although I admit most areas are in desperate need of a big dump of snow, for me the beginning of the season could not be more perfect.
This is my favorite time of year for capturing shots of the pros for their websites and for their sponsors as the sun is low in the sky and as it is shining every day I getting load done!
I’ve been in Tignes all last week working on the glacier, conditions here are remarkable particularly as there hasn’t been any new snow for a couple of weeks. Tignes have done a remarkable job on the pistes. Most of the Glacier is open and the run down to Lavachet is superb.
I am doubly excited this season as I am armed with two new tools a Canon EOS-1D Mark IV SLR and a new lens EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM and they are really earning there keep. Super sharp images in both Raw and Jpeg that really can’t be compared to lower grade cameras. I’m absolutely loving both my new tools. Brilliant for shooting the Snoworks Gappies last week. The difference is remarkable no need to slow down the action so you can really capture someone in full flow. Here are a few to wet your appetite and If you need a pro-shoot for your website or for sponsors, Now is the time!! Contact me at polly@dynamicpictures.co.uk 0033630637012.
