    It is hard to get a GOOD shot of snow white is tough lol

  • Yes it can be. What I typically do is meter off the snow in manual mode, possibly with spot metering, then open up 1.5 stops or so. That puts the snow about where it should be in tonality.

    Go ahead, make me jealous! I live in Colorado and we are in a drought. We hardly had any snow this winter. I still hold out hope. Beautiful picture, John. XO

  • Thank you Lori. This may be the one and only good snow this year, it’s been too warm here. I was glad to see at least one decent storm!
