Here’s the Friday Photo of the Week. Was feeling wintery and I couldn’t help myself. Tell us if you like and why/why not.
Behind the scenes “making of” this shot and the camera/lens/spec details after the jump…
The above shot was created on a Nikon D3, using the Nikkor 24-70mm 2.8 lens (affil links to B&H). Shot at f6.3, 1/1600 sec, ISO 200. The legendary Tanner Hall is the athlete. Location: Stevens Pass, WA.
The behind-the-scenes shot below is how we captured this image. That’s me in the black on the right with my D3s and Todd Jones (TGR) on left in the yellow, shooting the RED camera, hanging outta the helicopter. BTS photo shot by Scotty.
Like or not? Why?













Need you ask! That is an amazing shot. I expected no less. Great work as always.
The first picture is great ! I’ve never seen an picture like this one before. Very good job !
loving it.
Chase, do you sell these shots? This is awesome.
It is pretty amazing. Initially I thought it was a simple landscape shot, but once looking at the full size rather than a thumbnail it really works.
The blacks and the texture of the snow add to the drama, and the fact it takes a second or two to figure out what is going on here is really the magical part.
