FRESH SNOWFALL

Dear reader, if this entry or my other blog entries don't answer your specific photography questions, you can call me on the phone anytime for advice by clicking here.

Today's entry is not so much an instruction, but more of an encouragement to get out of bed early the next time you have a winter storm! If you are living in a southern climate, you are at this moment missing out on a cold snowy day . . .

The best conditions for winter photos are early morning after a storm. The mornings are usually calm, which means the snow will still be resting on the tree branches. If the sun is out, you will be guaranteed excellent images. The early morning sun will warm up the image, and will provide a welcoming and happy feel to your photos.

If it is still cloudy when you start shooting, my suggestion is to use a blue filter mixed with a slight soft focus filter. If you are a digital shooter set your white balance to Indoor Lightbulb setting, which will give you a blueish image, then apply the Guassian Blur filter. This combination will produce a more dreamy, wonderland style of photo.

Regardless of the type of sky you have, early morning fresh snowfall images are always fun to create.
