Sometimes
by

Sometimes you have spend a little bit of time with a photo to make
it go the way you had envisioned when you took it.

I finally realized that black and white was the way to minimize the
distraction of the color and to focus on the fact that he's catching air.

Great catch. I love the calm expression and the goggles, as well as the B&W treatment. My fave of your 4 choices.

Difficult choice, but I choose this as my favorite.
Great action shot. He is truly airborne!

I like the composition, the good use of negative space. I also like your processing. The blacks are black but have detail, and the white snow retains just enough detail. Well done. My pick
