Aleksander - Bs 180



Aleksander Walmann doing a Bs 180 out of an old barn over these spikes to flat back in November 2008. The reason why I haven't posted this one yet is because I have always been really stoked about it, and never lost hope of getting it published. And a few months back I received an e-mail from the director of Ski & Snow New Zealand asking if I wanted a six-page checkout in the next issue. It obviously wasn't a hard decision, and this picture turned out as a full page in the magazine! So pretty stoked on that

Re: Aleksander - Bs 180

I must run my screen resolution too high as I never would have spotted that!

Anyway, once again a corker of a picture. I like it because it is something you have created and not just found. It's exciting and different to what most people are doing. Great balance of light sources etc. Ideal.

It's actually the dot pitch that will allow you to pick up on finer details - if the pixels are too small, you won't see the minute - but if they are larger (like mine) you will. Larger dot pitch is better for pixel work (such as for website designers).

My res is 1920 x 1200 on a screen that can display 2560 x 1600 - hence the larger pixels.
