First Runner Up<\/h1>\n

<\/a>
\n“I have shot this series in Engelberg Switzerland on Jochpass on an awesome day. I have used a Canon EOS 50D with a 17-85mm lens.”
\nExposure Time 1\/4000
\nISO 100

\n[Ed note: The epic jump, mixed with the sun that blinds us to the full scope of the scene—my eye kept coming back<\/em>.]
\n– Simon Sharp<\/p>\n

Winner<\/h1>\n

<\/a>
\n“I was directly below the snowboarder, standing behind the jump ramp. All photos taken with Nikon D2x with Nikkor 10.5mm fisheye lens. I didn’t use any tripod, it was all hand held. Aperture was around f\/6.3 and shutter speed around 1\/1000sec. No flash Photos are then merged together in Photoshop cs4.”
\n[Ed note: It’s just an awesome shot that required an element of risk, capturing a classic sports action sequence<\/a> from an immersive perspective.<\/em>]
\n– Vedran Frka<\/p>\n
