ISO settins? seems pretty clear

Yabut most of the snow I see is lying on the dog's fur. Nice shot though.

Of course. I advised using flash to freeze the falling snow, and the shelter to avoid the big out of focus blobs in the foreground. But if you want to see the tracks of the falling snow you will have to select an appropriate shutter speed.

Wow! I like every photos.

Snow flakes, corn flakes. Id rather shoot corn flakes. I hate to go out in the cold. And when your done shooting you can eat the set.

Snow fall taken with flash.

The image is not shape but some how i like it! As you all know the pros do it in photo shop here is my try. snow is already on the ground just added the flakes quote=riverfox]This photo was taken at 1/200th of a second and you dont see much travel of the flakes. If you can shoot at 1/100th or 1/50th you would get more streaking. Experiment in that 1/100th of a secnd or slower.[/quote]

I'm guessing you're shoveling a path for your dog. That's what I have to do for my pugs. If the snow was that deep, I'd just put down papers on the floor. :D

Here is one taken a few years ago with a Canon G2. The shutter speed was 1/250 and flash was used. The shelter was my car and it didn't provide enough distance to the nearest snow flakes (actually it was coming down in clumps). The nearest clumps of snow are blown out. and are clearly whiter than the rest of the snow.

Good photograph! I like this a lot better than those with streaks.

rfazzi Loc: San Jose, California

No streaks, eh? Here is the same view I posted earlier with a faster shutter speed.

1/125 f/4.2 ISO 6400

Willy Loc: Alaska

Well, it snowed today and I went out to play & experiment with your question. As I mentioned earlier, one factor to keep in mind is how hard its snowing and this is probably the most significant factor.
Another factor is how bright/dark the scene is. You can compensate for this by adjusting the ISO accordingly. I was fortunate today to have good even light. (Usually the case when its overcast and /or snowing)

The photos I captured today re-enforced a valuable lesson for me.

All 3 images were taken at ISO 100

Image #1 was taken at f/16 & 1/25 sec.
Then I opened the aperture 1 full stop to f/11 which halved the shutter speed to 1/50 sec. (Image #2) to give me the same exposure.
Again I opened the aperture 1 full stop to f/8 halving the shutter speed again to 1/100 sec. giving me the same exposure.

Notice in the three images the length of the streaks of snow. in image 3 at 1/100 sec they are slightly streaked and almost stopped.
In image 2 (1/50 sec) they look twice as long as in image 3 due to a halving of the shutter speed.
And again, in image 1 the streaks look twice as long as those in image 2.

Hope this is useful info. I was a good exercise for me and I'm glad it snowed today.

Image #1 f/16 1/25 sec.


Image #2 f/11 1/50 sec.


Image #3 f/8 1/100 sec.

Everyone thank you so much. Now I need it to snow.

ThomasS Loc: Colorado

Now that doesn't look much like Connecticut; more like the Southwest. Of course it can snow there, just not often.
