Oh hello there! |
"Professional photographers shoot in-bounds at Whistler Blackcomb for three days capturing athletes in their natural mountain habitat of powder filled bowls, trees, and après bars. This year's contenders are: 10-year veteran, Ilja Herb; accomplished snowboard photographer, Tim Zimmerman; Whistler local, Blake Jorgenson; outdoor lifestyle photographer, Robin O'Neill; Snowboard Canada Photo Editor, John Scarth; and up and comer, Andrew Strain.
Their edited slideshows will be played in front of a live audience at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler and judged by a panel of industry professionals. A prize purse of $6,000 and the title of "King/Queen of Storms" are up for grabs." - http://deepwinterphoto.com
SO! WB brought me up there to experience Deep Winter for myself for 3 days and then check out what the pros shot.
Today's post are some of my photos from the mountains. The weather was kinda of crazy...fog, rain, snow, wind...you name it, it happened. I did not envy the photographers trying to shoot with their gear in that. Check out my photos below to see for yourself, and then come back tomorrow to hear about what happened at the photo challenge!
