Niseko Boarding

(Edited)

Fresh tracks snowboarding down Mt Niseko with Mount Yōtei in the background. Yōtei-zan, literally "sheep-hoof mountain", has not erupted since circa 1050 BC. Hokkaido, Japan.

This is actually a picture of my wife snowboarding, and also my best selling photograph. Simple intersecting lines with a nice balance. Never underestimate how important getting the right balance of space is in a photo.

This is a really good shot. I like it a lot. And the fact that it has a personal bent, being an image of your wife, makes it all the more remarkable.

Thanks for Sharing Robert!

Yep. Japan is epic. We have been about 10 times over there.

Not surprised it's so popular XD sometimes the simple things are the best (though given the speed you can get when snowboarding I'm not sure how "simple" this was to catch :D).
