Jennifer heading out to ski.
On film. Hassleblad Camera. 180mm Carl Zeiss lens.
The weather people were all over the map. Predictions of another 110° day and dire warnings about the fragility of the electrical grid. It did get up to 105° but then, around 3:30 pm, we got a cooler front in from the West and even enjoyed about 17 minutes of mild rain. And a bit of wind. Nothing dramatic but in the space of thirty minutes we had a temperature drop of about ten degrees. And that was most welcome.
Snow skiing. Yep. That's what I'm visualizing in the late afternoon. Goggles ready. Now we just need snow.

July 1 I was skiing. Record snowfall this winter and a long cool spring left too much snow to open hiking season in the alpine. Staff tried to shovel the trails but in places still 2 meters deep.
So they pivoted and reopened the lifts 5 days for skiing. The snow was good as were the images of skiing on Canada Day.
Today it was 29C. Adaptation.
Wild stuff. Good to get out on the snow when you can! But you forgot to say which camera you took along. 😄
Really like this one. I get the same vibe from this portrait as from the portrait of the swimmer with water on her face (one of my most favorite portraits on this site).
