[QUOTE="Joseph Bautsch, post: 11546, member: 654"] Paula, I've done a lot of shooting in Colorado and this time of year it's going to be snow, snow and more snow. I would definitely get a CPL filter to bring out the color and pull down the glare. Also, along with the CPL I would use neutral density filters, a one stop and a two stop will be the most useful for snow glare. Also in the snow turn off the Auto White Balance. It will only give you gray snow. For white snow use a white balance of shade or cloudy. To keep the blue color to impart the feeling of cold use the sunny setting. Experiment with it to get the color you want. The 18-105mm is a great walk around lens. The 35mm, f/1.8G will give you the sharpest scenic shots of the two. And don't forget the tripod, and don't forget to use it. (Been there :() [/QUOTE]
