Got an assignment to shoot trees being cleared and removed for a new chairlift being put in. Wish I could have got closer, but it was actually quite scary just watching from here. The wides were at 17mm so you probably already know how close I was just from that - but nasty propwash and branches flying all over. Would have loved to get a fisheye right underneath everything but it took plenty of sweet talking just to get this close. All with 1d3, 17-40 and 70-200.

The tilt-shift stickler in me hates this shot:

Good series.

The tilt-shift stickler in me hates this shot:

First get "a" shot. Then get "the" shot. ;)
