Finally made the pilgrimage to Mt. Hood. Sadly, I only got one day of skiing in. Here are some of the photos I got. I would love to hear any thoughts on them.

The blue mountains fading into the background is a couple of the photos are such a Mt Hood staple, I love it.

eyyy you caught me on the knuckle filming Reece in that 3rd pic!

I feel like that 4th pic of Mitch front 4 off the uptube is a far stronger composition than the rest of the bunch, which all seem sky-heavy for no particular framing reasons. Also be mindful of the horizon line, its all over the place.

Reaching beyond the safety angle of somewhat wide with the skier almost dead center will really help bring your compositions to the next level. Also when I saw you on hill that day I noticed you had a nice 70-200mm, lenses like that can easily bring more depth into locations like this to separate the skier more from the backdrop/foreground

I appreciate the feedback. I don't shoot too much action sports so the the big thing I'm trying to figure out is where to position my body. I think that was only my second time shooting skiing. I also couldn't see shit inside my viewfinder with sunglasses on.

I also typically shoot a lot of portraits even though I was obsessed with ski mags when I was younger. It is going to take practice, but I generally appreciate the feedback.

BTW, I checked out your site and I love your work from the thumbnails alone. I'm going to have to actually watch the videos.
