FEATURES
THE PHOTO ISSUE
Three guest photo editors show off their favourite picks.
- BRYN HUGHES - CANADA
- SVEN BRUNSO - USA
- MATTIAS FREDRIKSSON - SWEDEN
Three photographers, three countries, a million views. For an
expanded take on visual stimulation for skiers this month, Ski Canada asked three of its
regular contributors to send us their own favourite shot as well as the best they could find from
their countrymen. Representing Canada, Bryn Hughes goes up against Mattias Fredriksson of
Sweden and American shutterbug Sven Brunso. Each sees our sport through a unique window,
and it’s your turn to tell us whose pictorial world is best.
