Hey NS,

for my photography final project I need to take 3 pictures that tell a certain story. All year I have been taking ski shots and I want my story to tell about skiing in some way. Does anyone have any good Ideas. One of my ideas is to take a early morning shot of cars going up the canyon, and then take a sick shot of skiing and then a shot of me relaxing on the deck after a long day of skiing

I think its kind of stupid for your teacher to allow you to only do 3 shots, cause that really limits you in terms of a narrative, but go for it dude.

definately do the story aspect imo

do the people in the parking lot skis set against their cars, getting all their gear, on even if it is set up well it will be nice

then try to shoot 2 friends meeting in the park bumping fists, or a line of skiers (thugged out) standing at the top of a run lookign down the line they want to hit, either do from from or a rear prospective imo

then i would show the after effect of them carrying their skis, thrown over their shoulder, or holding by the tip dragging them, goggles around the neck, and just relaxing well walking out of the resort, sunset would help too, or do a silouttete of this ^

i think by not showing any action your showing this isnt about the action and the sport, but the atmosphere and the time the take to do it, some how maybe in the 1st and 3rd shot incorporate a clock and show how they spend like 13 hours there

peace
