yalemba, nice shot good exposure. I am curious, di you post-process? I always find my 20D underexposes snow pictures & they come out awfully dark, Anyone else?

Might help me to know your setting, can you check the exif for me?

Thanks, Jeff

Jeffrey,

try over-exposing (Exposure compensation) snow shots by 1 or 2 stops!
Otherwise you get 18% grey snow, which might look natural for city pictures, but not add to the desired effect :lol:

Best regards,
Andy
