Arapahoe Basin Powder Day with Holga

Published by litfoto May 7th, 2008 in General, For Photographers & Students and Holga Toy Camera. 1 Comment

Here’s a couple of shots of Michael Gust, a fantastic skier I happened to run into at Arapahoe Basin. These were shot in the new Montezuma Bowl off the backside of A-Basin! I would love to hear some comments on the small light leaks in the upper right corner of the images. The leaks are part of the Holga flaws which make this camera so unique. Each Holga I have ever owned produces a unique mark. I’m thinking it’s time to tape off my Holgas to eliminate this mark.

Hiking A-Basin’s East Wall with the Holga!

Last Sunday was a spectacular day for hiking the East Wall at Arapahoe Basin Ski Area! We had a classic Colorado Blue Sky day…too few this winter!

These were all shot with my Holgas…one with medium format film and the other with 35mm film (panoramic shots). Enjoy!

To the summit:

Brent goes after a stash of powder on the lower section of the wall. That’s Loveland Pass Highway (center right) with the Continental Divide sweeping across the top:

And just for grins and giggles…here’s a couple of me that Brent shot! Nice shots Brent! Brent is a former wedding client from a few years ago and has become a great friend and ski hiking partner. He has even assisted me shooting a couple of weddings!

Here’s a couple of pix from the Silverthorne Recreation Center Doggie Day. This is an annual event for local dogs and their humans the day before closing the pool area for cleaning and maintenance. I love the first shot! This dog has the goofiest expression!

This image from Arapahoe Basin captures something of the small ski area feel that is fast disappearing in the ski industry.
