Awesome Rene', you just opened yourself to a whole new sport. One suggestion for you and maybe anyone else that may be reading, read your manual and learn how to change your exposure. When shooting in snow like that, the camera tends to meter off it, dropping your exposure 1/3, 2/3 or a full stop will get you more detail and keep it from blowing out too bright. Always remember that its better to have the image a little under exposed than over exposed, I can work with you on getting this figured out. ;)
Thank you Rob! I am downloading Photoshop Lightroom as I type. I will make those adjustments as you have suggested. I can see where you can get hooked on that really quick. Now I want a bigger lens :bash: that will have to wait a little, or not :chuckle:

Are you really that close with the small lens or are you cropping them?

I was working on this same problem this morning. I was just out screwing around with my new camera taking some pictures of my horses in the snow for practice (just ones that I'll delete later - nothing too cool) and was messing around with dropping exposure. I ended up with some blue tinted photos when I did this and was having trouble figuring out how far to drop...Would this be caused by dropping too much? (Unfortunately, my wife's to do list caught up to me before I could finish figuring this out.)
Using a Canon 30d with the kit 18 - 55mm lens. Saving for the 70 - 200mm L IS and the 300mm L IS + teleconverter. Sometime in the near future, I hope.
