Dan Carr — Sat, 14 May 2011 18:20:22 +0000

Using Lightrooms filter system I can quickly reveal which lenses I used this winter the most. The new Canon 70-300 f4-5.6 L IS takes the win, hardly surprising as it is such an amazingly versatile lens. Second place goes to my 300mm f2.8 L IS. Did I really carry that beast around with me that […]

While shooting the AFP Big Air world champs in Whistler during the World Ski and Snowboard Festival I set my 5dMKII up with a 24-70 f2.8 on a tripod with a timer on it to record a timelapse of the whole event over approximately 4 hours. Each exposure was 15 seconds apart and it was […]

World Ski and Snowboard Invitational in Whistler

One of my favorite times of year in my home town of Whistler. The WSSF festival brings all the top athletes together in one place for the last competition of the season. Here’s a quick video I shot in training for the big air last night. Shot with 15mm fisheye and Canon 1dMKIV at 60fps […]

Heli Time In Whistler With Dane Tudor and Riley Leboe

Dan Carr — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 22:10:55 +0000

Last week we had a nice pocket of sunshine here in Whistler and we all decided to use up some budget on some heli time with Blackcomb aviation. It’s always a decision that needs some thought, heli time is ludicrously expensive ($2300 an hour of flying time) so when you split that up between a […]

Scenes of The Whistler Backcountry

After returning from Switzerland where I was shooting for SBC Skier magazine and Orage clothing we were greeted with an even more incredible amount of snow in Whistler than was here when we left. It’s just been another incredible year here and I couldn’t ask for a better place to call home. The original plan […]

Poorboyz Urban in Whislter + a Little Tusk

Dan Carr — Fri, 07 Jan 2011 07:13:08 +0000

Seeings as I have this brand new site I’m going to keep posting these general updates on what I’ve been working on recently. Typically for me I spend a little time at the beginning of the season doing urban photos with people and this year was no different. Poorboyz Productions purchased a winch system which […]

Christmas in Whistler and a quick HDR

Dan Carr — Fri, 31 Dec 2010 06:01:28 +0000

Now that I have split my blog into essentially two parts, this one and the more general photography one, I want to use this one to update people a little more on my everyday shooting. In the last 7 days Whistler Blackcomb has received something in the region of 215cm of snow. The skiing here […]
