Winner of the Mountain Top Challenge on Viewbug
Inspiration: I was on a hike up the mountain and on my way back almost to the car I had to cross the stream and the clouds pulled back at the right time to reveal the mountain in the background so I used the opportunity to get the shot.

I was asked to shoot some photos of the Nordekette Downhill singletrail and managed to snap this shot. timing was perfect to get the cable car in the background as the downhill biker took the jump.
Over the weekend I spent some time with the family and my daughters dog was the perfect model on our hike. There was this spot in the forest where the light was perfect and I managed to get the curious Jack Russell sniffling around the moss.
