Some snowboarding photos; apologies to the 56kers

[TwistMyArm]

Hey I just wanted to share some photos I took this weekend while we were riding at a local golf course.

The photos were all taken with my Pentax MZ-6, 28-90mm lens, and Superia 800. Most of the shots were taken at 1/2000 and 1/1500 of a second at F8, but there were a few deviations.

There are a lot more photos here.

Let me know what you think.

very nice shots twist! 3 & 5 are my favs, but all are good. have you mastered the art of boarding and taking snapshots at the same time?

Can't wait till July then I get to go snowboarding here

How do you get a user gallery through here? Do you have to be a Mod?

The galleries look really good on here.

Great photos by the way.

very nice sharp colors ... #3 is my favorite ... "bada$$" is what comes to mind

Great work Twist!
Just my opinion but I believe this is a good example of how film can handle a greater range of light levels (dynamic range?) than digital and that's coming from a digital only nut.

Wow, those are awesome. The very exact reason I'm buying a film cam. Eventually...

I think the last one is definitely my favorite, love the composition.

Thanks guys.

I've never tried shooting while I was riding myself. I figure it's safer to be stationary . I might give it a try the next time I'm at a larger hill (resort) and I have plenty of room to move around.
