Ok, that is good, I will do that then. We have our first snowstorm coming this saturday, and I hope to spot some creatures on snow! Thanks

Very nice! I don't mind hiking, not much of an actual climber. I only on Christmas got my first wider angle lens and a tripod so got into the landscape game. I love it. At this point it is animals and landscape, but I need to practice, especially exposure, etc. I saw you had a lot of snow photos- is there some trick I need to know? When I was taking in bisons on snow, it ended up being black lumps on grey snow, no matter what I did or if I pushed it to the right and the bison fur brown came through, the snow did finally become overexposed. I am planning to enjoy this winter and not sure I know how to shoot snow...

Hi Mattb,
I checked out your 500px, so I started following that! If I go to Colorado this year I might definitely connect, as I have never been there and would not mind a local telling me what to do there. I am very interested in Mountain Goats(the white ones) and Bighorn Sheep, as well as sage grouse, sage brush. Just recently, in Utah, I visited Antelope island, which turned out to be oasis for coyotes, jackrabbits, etc, but had only few hours there in less than ideal light, so planning to go back to Utah at some point this year.
Enjoy your 2016!

I see you're posting a lot of really nice images on the B&W thread. Keep up the good work

Hey Matt, I saw all your photos in the snow with the 40mm and 15mm. I have a K-x, 40mm, 18-55mm and I am going skiing soon; does the K-x or 40mm handle well in the snow?

"Is this TTips Dieberson?"
Yep
