The ski photographs

We've had appalling weather here for the past week, just solid rain. Yesterday the clouds parted and the sun shone, and the ski slopes were opened for the first time in over a week.

I arranged to go up the mountain with a friend who is an experienced snow boarder and was happy to guide me around the runs. However this meant that I had to spend five hours on top of the mountain while my guide had his fun.

The adventure went smoothly! I was warm enough and I took a couple of photos that pleased me.

I'm spending my time now, planning some new photographs for next year. So far I've pencilled in the Tour de France, New York and India for 2010, I hope I manage it.

I also hope that you have a wonderful New Year, and fulfill all your wishes for the coming year.

All the best
Tim
