This post is getting lost in all the Stockton beach threads.

The first one is amazing. :wink:

First one is great - looks cold, but the colour in the gums makes the pic sing :) Framing is perfect, just a really good photo - make sure this gets printed!!!

Others are nice, but you should have started with these and finished with the first, as they just don't sing as well :)

Love the first shot. The snow is one of my passions and this is a really nice shot.
Cheers,
Mick.

They are all great shots, however, my fav is the first one. I really do like the composition and the colours. It's a very cold looking place with a lot of natural beauty obviously enhanced and framed by the snow.

first image is very nice, composition is spot on and the light is beautiful....#2 is quite nice too.

I really like #1. You have used the tree to frame the shot quite effectively. Nice.
I think I would have liked to get the same shot with a little more blue sky/ less cloud as I think this would give the image a little more depth, and I don't think the extra colour would reduce the feeling of "coldness" you have captured . (Its a bit of a bugger that we can't control the weather conditions to shoot our photography :wink:) Having said that - I do really like your capture.
Thanks for sharing...

If only controlling the alpine weather was so easy :D

We spent about 1 hour at Dead Horse Gap, shooting Zali Stegall & the above images, and in that time we had sun, cloud and snow flurries! We left in a hurry because it looked like the snow was closing in, only to have brilliant sunshine all the way back to Jindabyne.

Now they are nice, but like the others have said, #1 is the standout.

Yes - I know. I have been caught out by alpine waether on a number of occasions when camping a little further south from where you were. Stinking hot one minute, icey cold the next. (Oops - just realised I was talking about Victoria. That's a normal weather pattern isn't it?? :P )

Sorry - a bit off topic. :wink:

I haven't watched the boys play much this year (given their performance, who could blame me) but I was *very* happy with today's match - the new kids were fantastic, & the leaders held it all together. If they can consistently play like that then bring on 2007 :D

Err, so this isn't entirely off topic, nice photos Kris :P

Macka,

All the pics I'm critiquing seem to have unanimous votes for the same pic.

First one is worth framing.

Excellent stuff

Cheers
