The Photo Story:
Jean-Hugues and I went to photograph on the snow slopes of west Quebec. While skiing on telemark gear I found a stable location from which to shoot. JH then picked his line and whooped it up! Good skiers make all the difference to a good photo!
The photo was taken under the blue skies of the stunning Gatineau Park, minutes north of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. This is also where I live - for obvious reasons!
This skier photo (including the colour) was achieved in the camera with traditional film techniques - not photoshop! The amazing colour was achieved with an unusual film stock that I started using years ago - usually saved for scientific purposes. With the co-operation of a willing film lab and regular E6 chemistry this process produces a beautiful effect!
Motion is a simple creative technique taught in some of my workshops.
The Print:
Giclée Printing is performed by renowned printer, Dave Andrews, who has worked on high profile print jobs including Canadian money! All prints are printed and inspected by Dave Andrews - on the rare occasion Dave is unavailable (everyone needs a vacation!) your print may be created by another masterful printer.
