Day 20/365 9 inches

Yup- 9 inches and counting.  It's still snowing and I can't believe it!  I don't think we've had this deep of snow since I was little in like 1982 or something.  I want to go take pictures outside really bad right now, but I'm going to try and take a little ride to Walmart first to see how bad the roads are.  I'm hoping (praying, begging, chanting, whatever) that we don't have school again tomorrow and then I will definitely go out to the Botanical Garden or something and get some sweet snow pictures.

Snow is obviously very hard to photograph.  I think I have the right color of snow in this picture.  Since I'm shooting in RAW now I can adjust the white balance very easily.  It looked too blue when I saw the shot and so I changed the color temperature and white balance.  I just never know if what I see on my screen is the same as what others see. 

If I get some awesome pics later I will post them as a Day 20 part 2.
EXIF info: Canon T2i, 100mmTokina lens, 1/1000 sec, f8, ISO 400, flash off.

  2. Great minds think alike! I just posted a similar picture. :)
    I think the snow color looks good. On my monitor it has a very slight tinge of green, but I know mine's a little off.
    Can't wait to see what pictures you get. Here's hoping for another snow day!
