[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Easter weekend came with loads of fresh snow, and on Sunday the sky cleared resulting in sunshine from bright blue sky the days after…

Very inviting for photography, and opportunity was taken! Even if fresh snow under light conditions like this is a challenge that calls for exposure manipulation...

Here we can see the tracks from a fox that has been roaming around during night time, looking for something to eat…

Nice shot Pablo good composition like the way the footsteps go out from the diagnol good detail in the white and contrast is well adjusted tfs rgds Necip.

Hi Pablo,
but now I can tell you where are the steps in the snow are from ... lol.
For me it's unbeleavable this year that you still have so many snow. They told us it will have about 28 C this weekend in the south of Germany - puuuuhhh! So hot in April, that's also not usual and good!
I hope to see some dragonflies soon.
You still have to wait, so poor!
Bye and greetings

Hi Pablo,

Wow, you still have a lot of snow there, it's hard to believe it's spring :-)
It's a beautiful picture and I like very much how the sun is reflecting on the snow and the trail of footsteps.
Beautiful light too, well done!

Hello Pablo, enjoy the snow in spring time!! Same here, but not that heavy in my town.

Nice snow capture (b/C I'm confused what season to call winter or spring). Good control over light, and those footprints looks very good. TFS

A beautiful shot of snow against the reflective angle, which is of course not an easy take. Mound of soil with loads of snow is looking fantastic. Background is advocating an altitude which is interesting. Well done my friend.

Thanks for sharing this magnificient snowy shot.

Buenos efectos y precioso el color albi-celeste de la nieve.

Hi Pablo,
Those foot prints in the snow are a nice lead in to the far distance. The contrast is perfect in this image. Snow and a clear sky hence such a bright light, is not easy to handle, but youdid it very well! TFS.

This is well exposed Pablo, you did great! We also had snow on Eastern, yesterday and last week too :(

Those tracks add an interesting element here. I see that you used a very high shutter speed; I wonder why? This is a very nice picture again and TFS,
Claudine

And your captured it brilliantly. The tracks and reflections of the grass add nice texture on the very white and smooth snow.

Hello Pablo,

Please , stop Winter ... we are freezing now! :) :)

Good shot, fine captured snow against the blue sky,
well done Dear friend.

Viva The Spring time.!

Hi Pablo,
Another wonderfully and carefully composed image.

Thanks,

Hello Pablo,
And so you had snow in Easter. Hope spring catches up fast and soon. There is good exposure and sharness in this composition as evidenced by the fox' tracks. Best wishes. Danilo

Hello Pablo

A superb winter scene, with well managed lighting & no overexposure on the snow. Well done! Perfect sharpness & contrast. Tfs!

Fresh snow is something we only dream of, however there are predictions that in January we also will get a lot of this - no foxes I'm afraid - well you can not have it all.
TFS this beautiful moment in the snow,

Maybe the fox ate the Easter bunny? I have had no basket fo candy left for me in many many years for me. hahahaha!
