Nice work! I love the one of the car bumper. And I'm still jealous everyone is getting all this snow!

I love the photo of the bmw bumper covered in snow!

The fourth shot of the wind and snow is outstanding. Even though the crop is a little weird.

Andrea,

Great stuff. I tried to capture the snow blowing today like you did but I have nothing worth showing. Your shots do the scene justice.

i love the one with the birds, it reminds me of 1960's black and white french films (nouvelle vague)

Love the texture of the snow in the bumper shot - it's so easy to blow that out - nice work.

Good pics Andrea,

the bird pic is a good focus. However, the frame looks a little noisey, what ISO did you shoot? Also, as I showed you while I was home, you can really see sensor dirt when you shoot a monochromatic sky. I am going to try and get that sensor cleaning kit, I think you should get one too. I also need to show you how to use neat image/noise ninja.

Also, can you take a picture of my BMW while you're off from school, the beasts are sleeping hehe. Being away at college sucks, we have classes and 16" of snow on the ground... grrr
