For each edition of the Tribune, we sort through dozens of photos, selecting the ones that will be published in the paper. Actually, sometimes we go through thousands, just for a single edition. Over the weekend, Tribune photographer Kara Bacon snapped more than 2,000 shots at Sleeping Giant Ski Area's Rails and Bails Festival.
Often times, those dozens — or thousands, as the case may be — of photographs are stored away in our archives, some never to resurface again. Rather than let the pictures disappear in digital archives, we decided we'd share a few here on the blog.
For the Tuesday, Feb. 2, 2010 Tribune, here are pictures that didn't make the paper — ones that we thought are still worth taking a gander at:
