The storm NEMO left a white blanket of snow everywhere here on Long Island. Right away I thought of all the shoveling but my grandchildren could not wait to go out and play in the white stuff so camera in hand I followed. So these are a few shots of my little guys. My Grand son is 9 and my grand daughters are 12 and 2. All were shot with a D7000 RAW at f5.6 for the girls and f10 for the boy , ISO 200, WB cloudy. Shutter speeds were 1/125 for my older Grand daughter, 1/400 for my grandson and 1/800 for my younger grand daughter.

Great looking kids, Robert.
And the photos aren’t bad either. lol
The snow really looks like snow in the last two.
Hard to do, I know.
I’m gonna guess that you got hit with at least one snowball.

Thank you Dale. I appreciate your comments.
Mandrake that was a pretty good guess. I see you know how these things go with the kids but I kept my distance and watched my back. Besides they got their jollies when I fell on my butt by myself. Yes, I sacrificed my body to protect my Nikon!

yes… like above… great white balance of snow.
I’ve tried to do some pictures to my daughter on snow, during last weekend… I did several takes, but all were to grey. Please share your settings 
Best regards

Most settings are in the property details.
Robert… Do you remember the white balance setting other than “manual”?

Mandrake,
My white balance setting was “cloudy”. I think what really worked for the snow was shooting Raw. It allowed me to bring up the detail in the snow during post processing. I am a Photoshop guy since Pshop 4 many years ago so I am comfortable working with it but Lightroom works pretty much the same. I also shot in manual mode and metered on the blue sky for my exposure.
Thanks everyone.

Really nice natural picture. I like 2 and 3 the most. The first one has some kind of unnatural blur. Did you add it in post?
I like the fact that even it is in the snow, which is associated with cold, pictures give the warm feeling, probably because of the sun and your WB.
I miss winter.

Yes Oksana, I did add the blur but I went too far and it does not a little weird. I redid it and you are right it looks better.
I like the 3rd one the best. To me it looks the most professional! Thanks for sharing 
. Cute kids…
