I am planning on doing a series of resort art with photos I have taken during the years. My first one is Breckenridge. I'm am checking to see how much it would cost to print on archival paper.

 

Next will be Whistler.

I don't know the artist, but I came across this piece of art in Chamonix -- I really liked it.

Well, ordered my first print on some expensive archival high end paper -- anxious to see how it turns out.  Will take a few days...

First, Pete, this is awesome. Looks great. I can't wait to read how the high quality print turned out.

 

Second, and because I spend way too much time around teenagers (coaching, of course!), I had to giggle like a teenager when I saw this. Jungfrau in German means virgin or maiden. Therefore, I really appreciated the irony of the "Head" skis in each of the short for Jungfrau. Get it? Head . . . virgin . . . he he he . . .

 

Anyway. I'm 12.

Woops -- I guess I must have some issues which are showing up subliminally.  At least I didn't put 2 snowballs next to the skis.  redface.gif

My wife and I met up with her brother and his wife in Garmisch-Partenkirchen a few years back.  One of the mountains hanging over town is "The Wank".  Needless to say that led to a few jokes.

Nice! I love ski/mountain photos. Sometime I probably should get a better camera -- my current camera is a Fuji I received for working 20 years for my employer. It's a fairly nice camera, nothing fancy, just pretty slow.  I am more into the art than the photography end so I make do.
