The Lone Skier

entry description
This was taken at Kleine Scheidegg in Switzerland on the last day of the official ski season this year. There had been an almightly dumping of snow the previous day, and when this day dawned bright and sunny many a local donned their ski gear for the last time, eager to get one last downhill run in (we caught the train up from Lauterbrunnen and it was packed with skiers!). I loved this shot as just for a moment this skier had this run all to themselves, and given the ski marks in the snow this seemed like it might have been an unusual image to witness. The sky was a beautiful blue, the snow pristine, and it was one of those perfect travel days (even though we didn't ski!).back to gallery
