That's really cool Rotti! Do the wild birds in your area always do that? Is there any special challenges in shooting against that bright white snow? (Not that I plan on doing that anytime soon :lol
Well these birds are in a wildlife reserve so they are used to people feeding them. Not sure what kind of birds they are. Chickadees? As for shooting in snow I find I just have to bump up the exposure a little because the camera wants to tone down all the white.
Did you shoot the photo in RAW or JPG mode? If you shot it in RAW then the software that you use to convert your photo will have a slider for exposure. Bump it up as high as you can without losing detail in the photo.
If you shot jpg then a program like Adobe Photoshop will also have an exposure adjustment that you can use.
Thanks, yes, she's my elder daughter one or 2 years ago. I used a normal Canon digital camera. Don't remember the model. I have to make new pics with the reflex camera we bought last year....
The red couch is the one I used to have in my studio. Now I moved it somewhere to make room for my amps LOL
Shot this one on film, lost a lot of quality in the conversion process, and the people who developed it overdeveloped so her skin looks nasty and pasty
Here's where I would take it exposure wise... (hope you don't mind me editing your photo)

I'm no photoshop expert but what I did was bump up the exposure, unsharp mask at 100/.09, and a slight overal color saturation boost.
I think your lighting on the bear was prety good. Just the wrinkly background takes away a little. But the light is good.
Also I should add that your better off to get the exposure correct in camera. That will give you less noise and the most detail out of your image.
some nice pics in here guys. i remember when there was snow like that all winter long just 80 miles north of here. now the lakes aren't even frozen... glen
i haven't shot anything with my dSLR since xmas (mostly point/shoot & video). no snow here, lots & lots of rain & being indoors. but i am going thru my lighroom library picking out the best photos of the bunch from 2007 and will try to get a few posted... glen
