While i'm on it, General trivia Kosciuszko is not pronounced "Kosie-osko" it's actually "Kos-choo-shko"
Those photo's are sick Gareth! I still haven't been to the snow since school :cry:
thanks tom, well aware of the spelling, was merely a typo. (been there 6 times so far).
I suspect you will have a huge task trying to convince all the locals of the correct pronunciation. having said that, just coz the Polish pronounce it one way, doesnt mean to say we cant choose a different way! :P
My next target is USA or Canada - the planning begins!! (unfortunately this is going to set me back up to $30k. any one want to buy some kids off me?).
get them up there Mrk_Mickey, even if its for a relatively cheap snow-play holiday.
Snow is god!!:bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:.
Hey mate,Quote:

thought as much! and too right you can choose to say it a different way, tom-a-to, tom-ah-to... I've been there a few times and when I pronounce it the Polish way I get blank stares from the locals.... Then I go on my rant about how to pronounce it :biggrin: always up for a challenge!Quote:

The photos look great mate, cheers for the info on that. I also love that style, it's a great way to frame content and create strong focal points. I mostly shoot in Av mode too but my lens doesn't go as low as 1.8.
