Chas,
This is majestic, though best seen at a better resolution
One of your very best, the pose detail and the snow are just wonderful![]()
Majestic indeed. would have loved to captured that one ....alas could have been there if not for the banquet.
Chas,
Well composed and of course exposed. :)
Two questions: Was the falling snow messing up focus, hence the manual focus? Is that water in the BG (looks like ripples on the left)?
I like the gray BG.
Great image Chas. I like it a lot.

Robert,
Yes, on both accounts. FYI- the more inclement the weather the shorter the focal length I try to use.
See http://www.shootthelight.com/blog/?p=1017 for additional info on exposing in snow technique.

Chas - this really conveys the cold. Well done as usual. I like the water as the bg.
