I'm increasingly a goggle slut!

Loving our Ski Clothing Addiction (not so) Anonymous threads.

I'm pretty loyal to my ski pants and jacket; once I find ones that do up over boobs and bum and don't make me look elephantine I'm friends for life.

However, my addiction is goggles: Increasingly getting them for all occasions: bright conditions, dark conditions, alternately bright and dark conditions, conditions that are slightly dark but not overly so. Conditions when I want my face to look festive. Conditions when I feel I need an extra 1cm of cheek coverage. Conditions when I just need to see the world through rose-tinted glasses (ahem, goggles).

Show me your selection, ladies, let me feel I'm not alone.

On goggles, I'm one and done. Once I find a frame that fits my face and helmet I stick with it.

Oh those are pretty. I want some goggles that kick ass at low light because holy cow does that sh*t scare me.

But rose color are my favorite because they make me happier. Who knows why?!

I’ll take a pic of my goggles next month when I’m out skiing.

I don’t know why pics insist on attaching sideways!

Anon M3 - these are the bomb. Lens swap could be done in the chairlift line - no clips, just magnetic. I adore these so much I am monogamous!

Fixed it for you.
I just noticed that if I add a photo by dropping it into the "drop image" box, it appears upside-down, but if I click and unload it from my laptop it appears correctly oriented. IDK if that helps anyone, but check it out next time you post a photo.

Also @newboots said once if you edit and crop a little that it would allow the photo to appear correctly. That worked for me.
I attached it as a file from my phone - it showed properly in my camera roll, but then rotated once uploaded to the site. I have edited a photo before uploading to correct the orientation, but haven't seen how to do that once uploaded. Next time! Luckily Ski Diva came to my rescue this time.

Mine was on my iPhone as well. I did not correct the orientation, literally cropped a teensy bit and voila, it was correct.

I've always had yellow for low-light, but I've just got some lilacs for this season, just to keep the pink vision theme going (those are the Oakley Flight Decks bottom right) - interestingly I used to paraglide and the glasses that we wore to see faint clouds were very pink, and yes, it does make one feel good: maybe it reminds you of being in the womb.

Glad my photo tips helped! I read about it; there is digital language in our photos, and one of the things it tells is which side is up. Unfortunately, not every application uses the same language for "up" or "down!" I don't know why editing it a little bit seems to fix this, but it's been working for me.
