From front to back, this is a shot of Finley (struggling a bit in the spray), Camilla, Harmony, and Rhowan. This is the first year they've been sledging (there's not normally enough snow in the UK), and they've all really enjoyed it - once they got used to the cold at least :)
That said, Finley wasn't entirely impressed on this occasion, as you'll see when I post my next image (probably on Monday).
There wasn't anything especially complicated about the post-production, but it is worth mentioning that I used Topaz Adjust to bring out the detail in the flying snow, and spent quite a bit of time ensuring that some of the detail in the snow to either side of the sledge was still visible (i.e. a very steep Curve and a mask for those areas).

I think they're having fun...and least I hope so!!!
Wonderful PP, of course!
Great David! See, there are benefits to the cold besides frozen pipes and warm liqueur.
this just makes me smile. love the black and white... great processing.
the end result is good. you removed what's unnecessary. good expression capture.
Great action shot!
Fantastic, Camilla is SO expressive, lol, poor finley... x
Great shot, and action with a 5d on top of it. Again, the processing works very well with this image. The youngest in front is just priceless.
Regards,
Dave
LOL!! Great capture. Snagged that moment QUITE well. I almost miss snow - almost.
now this looks like good winter fun! brilliant capture
From someone who grew up sledding all the time... this photo says it all! I love it!
nice capture, you have wonderful images
Looks like they are having so much fun, a fantastic snow picture.
wonderful natural fun shot. The flying snow and Finleys face really makes it :)
Great action shot, and great exposure. The hig key effect is excellent.
Wow! This is one of your best shots ever. I love it, the timing couldn't been better - and the PP is just spot on, as always. Also, great crop.
