Originally posted by Heinrich Lohmann Thomas, that is a very nice series but # 4 is superb.
I can understand your love for winter up there, we lived in the Yukon for 16 years and loved it.
Take care, Heinrich
THank you Heinrich.
I agree on Number 4, I walk past this place every day, but yesterday I finally had the right conditions for the shot I had in mind.
I know we share a passion for arctic winters, yukon must have been amazing.

So beautiful that each time you post the images of the snow scenes, it took my breath away.
I am sure the walk around the area with these primes must be a joy!
thank you Roentarre.
It was and is a joy to walk this area, so desolate and beautiful at the same time. It is what I do to clear my mind and find peace with myself.
The locals call is to go for a session with the great psychologist and it is true, it really is a great way to clear the mind and recharge the mental batteries.
Originally posted by SupremeMoFo Wow, scenery like this is just so foreign to me. I agree with Heinrich, #4 is really something else! Great series.
Must get some pretty fast shutter speeds as not to overexpose stark white landscapes?
Thank you.
I agree on #4, it really came out good, a scene I have been walking past daily, just waiting for the right conditions.
Due to the lack of light these days shutterspeeds are actually quite low and requires a tripod to turn out alright.
The reason is our geographical location and the fact that I go shooting around sunset.
But yeah exposure and snow like this is really something that takes a little getting used to, not in terms of speed though.
Originally posted by J.Scott Check the EXIF for each shot, they are not fast shutter speeds by anyones measure. Must be magic!
Nice shots Thomas. I particularly like the traffic jam shot.
By the way, I changed my mind about exchanging our Northern Ontario winter for yours! Yikes, that looks bloody cold!
thanks man,
Nope we have a soft, late afternoon light up here for the few hours the sun is actually up, due to its low curve over the horizon
Yep sure looks like a trafic jam does it not
It is not too bad, constant temperatures around -15C and tomorrow we are promised to reach the -30C mark, so yes it is going to be a chilly the next couple of days
Originally posted by axl Beautifull images Thomas, all of them. But I think No. 4 really stands out.
Thanks axl,
Yep I agree, #4 really is my favourite from the day.
