Just saw this thread. Been serious about bass for a long time, just got into photography last year. Bought a used Rebel XT over the summer and have been spending every extra moment shooting, learning, reading and viewing all things photography.

I started a Project 365 blog on 1/1/10: check it out.

Here are some pictures:

@Phill, those look pretty dark, might have something to do with the snow messing with your lightmeter...

I can see why you would say that, but there are so many variables at play here that one can't really offer up an informed opinion without more information. Nonitor settings, angle of view/monitor tilt, contribute to photo's looking a particular way.

Perhaps you have a snow photo that you would like to share that shows your preference for exposure?

Nah not really, I don't want to come across like an arrogant bastard or anything :)

It's just that I shot several roles of film in the snowy french alps last summer, and I realised how difficult it is to expose everything correctly.

One of the big advantages of digital photography of course :)

I shoot digital but I learned a long time ago using 35mm film. I used to develop film in my bathroom and rent darkroom space to print.

To me the advantage that digital has over film is that you can learn and adjust quicker because you can see the results and use a lot less resources. It enables you to work smarter with less guess work. You usually can correct for exposure after taking one shot by just looking at the histogram which shows the distribution of light and dark areas of your photo.

Snow is difficult to photograph, but it's easier on a cloudy day(less contrast) than on a sunny one.
