A cold night last night, a ski holiday booked, and my mind is starting to tune into the delights of skiing.
Riding up hill on a Chair Lift to start the next run down provides a grandstand view of the terrain and of other skiers – some good and some not so good. It’s a time for reflection and a time to watch one’s shadow creeping up the mountain alongside. And, naturally, time for a picture or two.

Hi - I'm a UK-based photographer who started out 45+ years ago as a lover of landscapes, inspired by my love of outdoor pursuits: skiing, walking and climbing. Now retired, I seldom leave home without a camera and I find images in unexpected places and from different genres. I work on the premise that Photography is Art and that creativity is dependent on the cultivation of 'A Seeing Eye'.
Nice framing on this, Andy. I like the high contrast, too.

Thanks Ken. I love the way B&W tolerates the added contrast.

Neat! And I’m envious, long time since I was able to ski…..

I didn’t ski for about 35 years – a busy demanding career put paid to that – but I’ve made up for lost time in the last eight years or so and I’m skiing better than ever.

Thanks Adrian. A ski holiday is so much more than just the ski down.
