Kashmir - A Skier's Journey: Ep1 from Jordan Manley Photography on Vimeo.
I absolutely love this.
Its very refreshing to see more and more ski films coming out that go beyond the 15 second clips of 14 year olds throwing back flips off of tabletops. Not that I don't find the clips of the young ones impressive - they're constantly pushing the boundaries of the sport and causing it to progress by leaps and bounds.
However, I love it when I come across a piece of work that takes a step back from the sport and allows the viewer to get a sense of the particular place and culture that the athletes happen to find themselves in. I'll probably never make it to Kashmir myself but it's great to see there are others out there willing and able to do the exploring so that the rest of us can watch and dream....
Jordan Manly I anxiously await Episode #2!
