Snow. It covers the land with a fluffy white blanket and makes everything clean.

Until it is disturbed. Today in Woodhall Spa was just one of those days. We woke up to a couple of centimetres which covered the plants in the garden. The best time to photograph snowscapes is when the sun is out, it produces highlights and shadows to add depth to your images. But beware with all that brightness the meter in your camera can be fooled into thinking there is more light than there is, it will compensate and you end up with dull images. So try turning off the automatic settings and try your camera on the manual settings. You could also experiment using the exposure compensation settings.

So we are expecting more snow this week, there will be lots of opportunities to go and have fun.
