May 11: Change Gears

A great thing about living in SLC is that I can ski and bike in the same day.

A quick tour in the morning.

Followed by 20 miles on the bike.

(Notice the snow in the background.)

The descent was cold.

I'm working on a new camera rig. The results aren't great, yet. From the following frames, I learned a lot about what I need to improve.

The focus slipped. The shutter speed was too fast (not enough motion blur). The composition is too centered....

I can fix all of that with tape, aperture, and geometry. A bit more practice and I'll be able to get some interesting shots.

(Some nicer light wouldn't hurt either...)

The next challenge is to ride 25 miles to Snowbird (+4000' gain), ski a few laps, and ride home.
