Epic

Epic day with Felix, Hannah, Sebastian & Max above Innsbruck. This pic was taken when the plan was going according to plan. An hour later it started going pear shaped. Didn't get back to the car until 21:30. Got a couple of good shots though! ;-)

Season is over ...

A short film about Harald Philipp made by Sebastian Doerk fotografie. Considering the 5d MkII was barely out it's box and this is his first film then I think it's an extremely good effort. Harald's riding is as insanely good, as ever, and this video succeeds in capturing some of his summit ride flow. I especially like the D300 snow shower piece near the end, and this, to me, epitomizes the value of mixing video with stills. I have a feeling there's a lot more of this to come through 2009. Let's hope so.

Why i love Innsbruck

Went up to the Seegrube today. Was supposed to be a spot check for tomorrow, but turned out quite differently once i meet Julia on the slope. Just enjoyed the sun, and we even found some good snow.

And this morning, when i left at my house, someone made my day! Ran directly into this one (sometimes it's the little things that make you smile):

Zipfelbobcross

Wondering what the title means? Don't know what a Zipflbob is? Check here : www.zasworld.at. Had the opportunity to take event photos at the Zipflbob-Nightcross last Saturday. Was quite funny to watch some nuts sliding down a steep ski piste with a mind-boggling speed, trying to not hit the obstacles in their way (like other contestants, or the gates :-) ). Afterwards a freeride show took place, with some bikers going over a kicker. Above pic was taken with 2 flashes, one from the camera left, warmed with a gel, and one from camera right....
