p.1 #1 · #281: wind on the mountain

A gust of wind yesterday at Bridger Bowl near Bozeman, Montana. Ski lifts were closed off and on until the wind finally died down.

I bet the skier needed some anti freeze for that ride.

Nice capture!
I might crop some of the blurry tree from the top right side.
good luck!

Thanks, Carrol. That does help! I was leaving it in due to the bending tree in the lower right side.

Hi Linda,

This definitely provokes the feeling of a cold wind. My only nit pick would be the close out of focus branches, but otherwise a very interesting shot. Good luck this week.

Hi Steve,

I had climbed a snowbank and had trees each way in my view. I suppose I could clone them out for my own use, but I didn't know if that was allowed in the contests. Although I didn't see anything in the rules, I'm assuming it's not. Thanks for the comments, and please let me know if I'm wrong about the cloning.

Hi Linda,

Although the overuse of photoshop is frowned upon in the contests, it is certainly o.k. to do some cloning. IMO, you could clone them out here and/or just take a slightly different crop.

Best wishes,

Steve S.
