Note. There is a special limited time price list for these races.The upload of photos from the December 10 slaloms is now complete. Both runs for the first race, but only the first run of the second race. It was too dark to shoot the second run of the second race. All photos are in run order. I shot about 1800 frames. With very few exceptions (maybe three racers over six runs) if the racer reached the gates I was shooting, there is at least one shot per racer per run.
I am uploading only small files; most are not fully edited and if anyone were to order a large digital file or prints larger than 4x6, I would re-edit and substitute a re-edited and larger file.
All sales proceeds benefit Alyeska Ski Club.
Prints can be ordered in three sizes, up to 8x12 inches. Some images could be printed much larger, but many could not because I had to shoot some at very high ISO and had to crop a lot. All should make high quality 8x12s. I am only allowing standard color prints. Pearl paper doesn't work as well for ski race images. I have often converted images to B&W, and would on a special-order basis if you are interested. Likewise, if you really would like a larger print (12x18, for example), email me. Some images could print even larger.
Digital files can be purchased in three sizes: (1) Low res, suitable for small screens (phones, etc.) and not prints. Offered mainly as a substitute for screenshots. (2) Med res usually about 1.5 mB, and good for 4x6 quality prints; will look good on a medium-size screen. (3) Large resolution usually about 5 mB, good for large screens and large prints and offering superior image quality. You must sign a licensing agreement before purchasing digital image (it pops up on checkout). There is no commercial use unless you purchase order the very high res file with commercial license ($200). Note: I have to approve all orders before they are processed, to make sure image quality is sufficient and to re-edit as necessary. So there will like be some delay before the lab processes an order. The lab I use, Mpix, is great and very fast. There is a 3-pack digital photo option. If you might want multiple prints of 8x12 size, email me directly.
There is also a "standout" option for 8x12s; the print is mounted on thick foam core and mounts directly on a wall, saving matting and framing expense. It costs a lot, but the savings could justify it.
Very important: it is hard or impossible to cancel or change an order once you place it; don't place an order until you are sure. Email me if you have questions.
I am sorry about the large watermark; it helps prevent screenshots. If anyone wants the equivalent of a screenshot image, please buy the low res digital file, so that the ski club benefits.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to email mail me either through Zenfolio or just directly at
[email protected].
Thanks everyone for the fast, aesthetic racing. Always feel free to look at the images in the gallery; purchase is not necessary. Special thanks to all the visitors for coming to Alaska. Good luck racing for the rest of the season.
