Well it was back to Obergurgl again for the Snow + Rock 10/11 catalogue shoot, and the Austrian weather, incredibly, was even worse than the last 2 years. We had the whole spectrum of conditions over the 9 days from armpit deep slush to bullet proof ice, to knee deep powder. But I suppose it makes for a varied range of pictures. The Nikons just blew me away, it was the first time I’d used them in anger on fast moving subjects and they just nailed it every time, the colours and picture quality are simply amazing. I’ll only put a flavour of the images we shot on this post, the rest can be revealed in October after the launch.

Just had time to nip to North Wales for a quick shoot in between the office and my next job. I shot a few running shots and I wanted to test out the built in Nikon Wireless Flash system outside. I’m not too impressed, the range is pretty small and fairly hit and miss, it’s better on the D300s than the D3. The SB900′s are quite powerful though and I tried a few shots at slow shutter speeds using rear curtain sync.

Back home for a day from the warmth of St Tropez and it’s off to London to shoot in the city. I had to shoot a Front and Back cover for Cycle Surgery for their Summer 2010 catalogue. Luckily the sun was out for that “summer look” but it was sitting firmly at zero degrees. Unluckily I had brought raging tonsillitis back from France, so to combat this I donned two down jackets, I must have looked like the Michelin Man zipping in and out of the traffic shooting paparazzi style.
Trying not to get anyone else in the shot is tricky, as London is, as you can imagine, rammed with people. So for some of these shots, I waited, poised with my finger over the release button for that gap to open up in the crowds and I’d sneak off a shot. All this while the model froze in T shirt and shorts, and angry security guards demanded our shoot permits, only to look crushed when they where produced.
