The opposite of the other side is for sure this side. As spring still is not here some sunny captures of snow should not be wrong.
From the Valisera to the valley of Nova are a lot of lopes with different challenge going down. The towers of the chair lift are taking the skiers back from there to this side, it is the one with the highest comfort as they have a cap and a heating in the seats. The "Sennhütta" at the right of the slopes offers some food and refreshment as one of the restaurants, this is a block house with a large terrace.

Das Gegenstück zur anderen Seite ist natürlich diese Seite. Da der Frühling noch immer nicht da ist, sollten ein paar sonnige Schneebilder nicht ganz falsch sein.
Von der Valisera in das Novatal hinunter führen eine Menge Pisten unterschiedlicher Schwierigkeiten. Die Türme des Sessellifts bringen die Skifahrer zurück von dort, es ist wohl der Komfortabelste mit Hauben und einer Sitzheizung. Die Sennhütta rechts von den Pisten bietet einiges an Essen und Erfrischungen als eines der Restaurants, es ist ein Blockhaus mit einer großen Terrasse.

Hi Ulf,
Good inclusion of the pole and chair lifts not disturbing the view on this superbly textured snowy slope. Excellent exposure and sharpness.
Good addition to the ski series!
Greetings

Hi Ulf, nice contrasts seen in this ski hill between the snow and that sky. I like your perspective looking down over the lift onto the hill. At first I didn't realize those were skiers down there. Seeing them works very effectively in giving a real sense of scale. That is one very large hill.

Thanks, John

Hi Ulf
Amazing light in this composition from the moutains. Good inclusion of the pole and chair lifts. Excellent details and sharpness
Have a nice day

Hi Ulf,

Heated and covered chair lifts is not what I am used to but would love to have whenever I go skiing. The ski hill here look very nice, with a good angle to gain enough speed. Nice light and colours. I think skiing is still very good in most north hemisphere countries. Cheers :-)

Hallo Ulf,
The people look like little ants going all downhill. Including the cable service in front was a very clever thing to do, it adds great interest in the composition which is very good by all those lines in this winter wonderland.

Hi Ulf

Superb sharpness, lighting contrasts, & graphism, with a striking blue & white colour combination. Well done!

Hi Ulf,
Picturesque atmosphere with attractive composition I like the splendid POV and the majestic mountain in the background. Clarity and sharpness is excellent, beautiful shot. Have a nice day - Szép napot Kívánok!

Das tiefe Blau mit dem weißen Pulver, ein super Kontrast. Das Carper-Format des Bildes macht die Landschaft eindrucksvoll

Hola Ulf,
Otra bella toma con la nieve como elemento principal en la composición y en el que eres especialista en capturarla con todos sus detalles. Magnífica luz y detalles.
Cordialmente
Charo

Diffucult light but the composition is very nice, the silhouettes of the tower and two cars are very well placed in the frame, and the different tints of blueish white are pleasant.

Cheers
A.

Hello Ulf,

Hi Ulf,
Once again fantastic patterns and shapes in the snow on the mountain slopes. Also wonderful contrast between light and dark. The tower and the chair lifts are very nicely included in the foreground as a strong silhouette. Well seen and captured!

Hi Ulf,

I'm amazed by the textures of the snow. I feel I can touch it. Incredible combination of light and shadow to create this effect. Nice inclusion of the tower breaks the white in a nice way. Well done!

Hi Ulf,
nice mountains reportage by winter, good shot and composition. An interesting place, good POV and contrast. Well done.

Hi Ulf,
The ski tracks and snow formations created a nice texture to the image. Very good lighting management against a bright glare from the snow ... just as well you had a polarizer. The skiers gave the scene some perspective and scale of dimension. Well captured and composed with very good image quality. Excellent work! tfs

Hello Ulf,
I like how the graphic lines of the cable cars and pylon stand out against the snowy backdrop. Cars and pylon are well placed in the frame; all making for a strong composition. Interesting patterns in the snow. Very good light and colours.
