Winter Photography Tips

No comments:
Winter can be a very beautiful time of the year, especially if you live in a region that gets plenty of snow. We all know how children love the snow - there are endless possibilities for having fun and cold weather is usually not enough to stop them from enjoying it. On one hand, winter poses a beautiful time of the year for photography, particularly landscapes and portraits, and can be equally refreshing for wildlife photographers. On the other hand, it creates certain problems that are hard to figure out for beginner photographers, let alone their cameras. In this article, I will give you tips on how to photograph in winter and end up with well exposed, beautiful color images. I will also provide you with suggestions on when to go out to photograph and how to use snow to your advantage

1) Plan Your Day

First and foremost, remember - days are much shorter during the winter. Sunrise is late, and sunset is early, so you only have a few hours of potentially beautiful light to capture those photographs, be it landscapes or portraits. I know from experience how engaging landscape photography can be during winter and those hours just fly by. Plan your day carefully - remember that you will need to revise your location no matter what you choose to photograph, so you'd better get there before the time of the day that you find most suitable. No less important is your safety. I've suffered from cold weather myself having stayed still in one place for too long. Bring some hot tea along with you, and some food, even if it's just a sandwich. Dress warmly - it is better to be hot than cold. Make sure your mobile phone is fully charged - cold eats up those batteries very quickly. The same goes for your camera, bring at least one spare battery and keep it somewhere warm and close to your body.
