This was taken several years ago at Matfen Hall when there was a deep snowfall.
I was using Program or full auto at time and of course got better exposures than
I do now using SLR. As Trev and banehawi pointed out in yesterday's upload I should over expose
in the snow!( Oh I see from Exif that I used F8 - on my Panasonic Lumix!)
Goodness knows how I got exposure right for snow!
This image is special to me as it was my first 20 pointer and got a first place
when I was a new beginner.
Thank you all for votes and comments on yesterday's upload of View from my Window.
I am lucky to look unto a field separated by a football pitch and children's play area from our back garden.

What is Snow?

Snow is a thousand flowers
the chinese probably said
hundreds and thousands this morning
drop their garlands on my head
last night the festoons started
long before we went to bed

Snow is a white-furred rabbit
the chinese probably wrote
hedgerows and fields this morning
wear a similar fluffy coat
last night the winter danced back
with a white fur round its throat

Snow is a treacherous fox-face
the chinese probably thought
it lurks in wait this morning
for the weak and overwrought
last night it laughed its head off
loving the fear it's brought.

Regards Nathan

Great shot like that the trees have leaves on one lot and not the other making a more interesting shot.
