Anticipation...First Day In Niseko

Its funny ya know. Anticipation. It drives us to the far reaches of the world. The anticipation of riding fresh lines, getting face shots and sharing memories with your friends, new and old. Today is just that. I awoke at 8 am, fresh off the jet lag from my journey to Niseko, to one of the most beautiful sites you can awake to. Powder!! It has been snowing all night and snowed into the day and more is on the way. It going to just get better I hope or so they say. Japan is an incredible place and I can't wait to get consumed into its coulture and more importantly its powder. Here are few photos from Today. I am promising to stay motivated and bring at least one photo each day from my travels. There is no snowboarding photos in this one but you can imagine 5 guys charging through trees and 5 smiles poking through snow encrusted expressions. For incredible images of snowboarding from one of the greatest photographers changing the way we view snowboarding each and everyday, check out blottophoto.com. Thanks for looking
