Just a tip, meter off of your hand when the sky is backlighting like that, your skier won't be a silouhette. The snow can also fool your meter and make for underexposed photos. Sweet shot though, great start!!

awesome picture. the black and white is...uhhh...nostalgic? maybe? looks cool. it's good to see images on celluloid these days, with the digi revolution and all. sick rail, too.
