Really nice action shots and some incredible snow sculptures

Cool pix, and you did some stuff right. But you did other stuff wrong.

The good: You nailed the focus and compositions on those actions shots. You captured some GREAT action there. Nice and sharp.

The bad. They're way underexposed. You used NO exposure comp on the action shots, and very little on the sculptures, despite the advice you got from numerous folks here in this forum in your other thread.

Even so, these pictures could be greatly improved with a simple levels adjustment. Here's an example...

Took all of 10 seconds to do. Sorry if I'm being critical, but maybe this will help next time.

Very nice, Brill! I like the up side down 47 shot the best. The guys outfit is not all that colorful an all... but I love that action. He ain't even peeking down at the ground yet. The yellow, green, red no number guy has a better ski cross, but not quite the extension. Thanx for sharing.
