Fun in the Snow Attempt 3

February 20th, 2010 Andrea 5 comments

A huge Thank You to Julie, Chris and Lies. After all your advice I set the camera to 100% manual settings and overexposed two stops. Here are the results so far. I am much happier with these shots and will hopefully continue to improve.



And one final shot – not perfectly focused but a fun shot none the less!

Fun in the Snow 2nd Attempt

Thank you Lies and Julie for your advice.  Even though the sun never made an appearance at all today, I did manage to get these shots this afternoon.  They are better than the first ones don’t you think, but I’m still not totally happy with them.  I am hoping we get some brighter weather this weekend so I have better lighting conditions.

Thanks Julie and Lies for your input regarding settings for snow photos. These are some of the shots I took prior to your advice, certainly not as crisp as Lies’ shots! The lighting seems way off on most of the shots.  Actually, the only one I feel worthy of posting here is the one showing DeNiro’s hot breath.  Anyway, if we get more snow, I’ll be out again and see if I can use your ideas to improve.

On a couple of the shots you can see Kora’s “Pit Bull” type collar.  DeNiro sometimes gets a little too excited when they play – we’ll have to work on that one!

Guess what we did this morning after a trip to the groomer!

A local pet store with the aid of Santa, was raising money for a no kill shelter in Howell, so we simply had to stop by. I was surprised how well they both settled. I was a little anxious we might have been there all day!
