Going for Gold
During the World Cup Giant Slalom here in Whistler, I was fortunate enough to be off work, have my camera and get a good vantage point. This was taken in Whistler during the 2007/08 World Cup season.
Cheers

This photo makes me hear cowbells…. not sure if that is also a Canadien skiing thing, or just European?
Fantastic phtograph.

Being an ex ski racer myself, I know what you mean but in Canada we simply don’t have the same culture as European when it comes to racing, they are way more into it then we are.

Great Action Shot! Vivid color and a nice angle of view…not to mention a spot on exposure.
