Peak in the 3 Valleys | 07:42PM Feb 05, 2007 | Comments [0]      Slideshow

I've just got back from a good weeks snowboarding in The Three Valleys, French Alps (staying at Courchevel).  It was a last minute thing when another member of my family couldn't make it and there was a free ticket going - how could I say no?  We were quite lucky with the snow as it hasn't been a great season in the Alps so far.  It snowed a couple of days before we arrived and that managed to last us the week, although patches were beginning to appear on the last few days.

I've found it's not so easy to take your SLR +++ out with you while boarding so I only managed to take my camera out for two of the days, this shot was taken on the last day when Dad and I tried to visit as many view points as possible.  I get confused which one this is, it may be Caron but don't quote me on that.  I took 3 shots from around the same position and this one had the best composition but only had 3 cabins in shot which unbalanced the photo some what, so I added one from another of the shots.  Can you tell which one I photoshopped in?  Toning wise; I took out most of the blues from the photo and added an orange warming filter.
