That second shot was actually manually focused, an old pentax lens mounted on my 30D. I just tried to follow him the whole way down the line, did better than I thought I would have =)

What really impresses me is the exposure - it's really tricky to get it right with all the bright snow and not end up with either the snow washed out, or the detail gone dark in everything else. Are you setting manual exposure, or using AE with exposure compensation?
Nevermind... Firefox Exif Viewer plugin FTW
