This week in smartphone photography, we cross-country skied in the mountains during a massive snow storm!

Whenever I post about skiing alongside all those large and mythic-looking ravens, I am not being metaphorical. I actually mean doing so literally.

My little, low-riding, but brave warrior seemed unfazed by the dark and menacing clouds heading in our direction.

These clouds brought gusting winds and carried sharp snow pellets hitting our faces along the way.

But that made the experience all the more exhilarating—so exhilarating, in fact, that it had to be repeated three times!
