Im not exactly sure if your picture qualifies to win the skis though, I think it may fall under the "Your Best Shot" catagory, its up to the organizers to decide.

Good question I think I would get the skis since it's a ski picture. I don't know whether you would get the snowboard or whether it has to be a snowboard picture to qualify for that prize. Either way I know you get a couple ski passes and 5 cases of your favourite pepsi product

I dont care if I win, I just dont think this one diserves to, no offence of course. Also I dont think you've won yet, I think their still investigating all the votes makeing sure nobody cheated, I really hope you didn't cause that would be a shame,
anyways If you win do you get the skis or snowboard? How do you think they will decide that? let you choose? and i get the other?

Maybe the format could have been better, but I don't think you should be complaining Jamis because even if there was judging your photo wouldn't have won. The front flip was nice, best move on here, but the picture could have been a lot better. Like you said its a photo contest, not a trick contest. Work on your photography skills and maybe next year you'll win.

Totally agree Jamis. MEC takes the top 5 votes in each category and has some judges vote for the top vid.

ya they should get some sunshine staff members to vote between the top few pictures like this picture is winning first place in a photo contest really?

Wow, if this photo is really going to win it, with sooo many better ones out there... just wow. This contest format was a joke, really.

You get them to vote earlier but tell them to wait until the end to actually confirm the vote

Great shot but not the best. Artistic because it's done in black and white that really captures the textures of the mountain but probably not as impactful in the colour version. There are a ton of amazing shots that have 10 votes or less. Personally like 'Sunshine Heaven' in the current top 5.

Hahaha, your a funny guy Ryan. You took that straight from ''sunshine on strawberry' (another sub-par shot). And I too love taking big dumps in the glades on goats eye - those brown patches aren't always dirt!

This picture is pretty exciting. Simple, yet complex. The beauty of the mountain curves is accented by the ''Powder Glades of Goat's Eye'. It captures the perfect complement of human and nature for the wonderful sports we all enjoy of skiing and snowboarding.
