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?
LIKE. Love the feel of the photograph, your eyes goes right to the person and angle.
Your photography is really coming along nicely, Chase. With more practice, you are sure to become quite capable one day.
Good grief.
Love,
Croan
like it? Love it!!! amazing shot. Absolutely full of tension, great texture and nice composition. Emphasizes grandeur and frailty at the same time. Just a great photo!
This is one of those images that, to my mind, does not need an analytical disassembly of its components in order to be appreciated. I looked at it once, and my immediate thought was, “wow, i’d love to have a big print of this hanging on my wall!”.
In fact, how would I go about doing that?
I like it — all the obvious reasons have already been posted. Too bad, the white balance is screwed 😉
