Stylewars 09 Photo Showdown

Andrew Roth at the door of our lodging. In the fog on the glass I had written "This Weather Sucks" but it was hard to get the right lighting to make it show up

This years STYLEWARS event at Falls Creek was plagued by some seriously bad weather. There was meant to be a Photo Showdown comp whereby all of the photographers present would submit a bunch of shots they had taken over the four days of the event.

The weather was all over the shop, we had a mix of rain, fog, snow and plenty of wind to boot. The comp itself only ran for a few hours on the last day when the fog finally lifted which was amazing to witness, not so great to shoot though. The rail jam however ran as scheduled and you can check out a gallery for it here

Once the event wrapped up the majority of people bailed to Jindabyne for the Boost Sno Sho so the photo showdown never happened. This was probably a good thing as I wasn't the only photographer who realistically had shot next to nothing. Anyways below were some of the pics I was going to submit that I figured might be of interest..
