^^^ you would be right on that sir. That is where it was filmed. Well, the exterior, the interior was filmed some where in Colorado I believe. Good old Timberline Lodge. =)

That was a crazy night. Just dumping snow up there I actually took that hand held with a very super duper lens. It was night time, and I thought this shot would not come out. I shot it with an aperture of 1.2 and boom, I got it. Amazing what $1,500+ lens can do.

Strange thing, I never really considered myself a photographer, but last year was an epic year for me. I grew so much in style and taste.

Yes. A lens is extremely expensive, but they are lifetime investment. They do not go down in value, or little if that. My next lens will be a 85mm 1.2 Canon L lens. Runs pretty close to $2,000. This thing is a beast of a lens. Here is a sample below.

You pay for bokeh. The blur behind your focal point. Just a beautiful lens.

Collecting L lenses is an addictive hobby. Plus it looks so bad ass. lol.

Re: www.dibec.com - Flickr (updated 03.18.2008)

It's the focal point. It actually really hard to shot because you have such a limited area of focus. You move the camera and it's out of focus. When I have shot with that lens I usually shot 3 photos, just to make sure. It is crazy. As you can see the photos can be amazing.
