Great photo! Love the undisturbed snow and the lone tree - nothing could be more lonely than a tree in winter. Voted

Behind The Lens
Location
Mt. Zumberak, CroatiaTime
Late morning, I think. There are no EXIF data. It was shot on film.Lighting
Bright and sunny winter day, lots of snow. Much light!Equipment
Minolta Dynax 7000i, Fujichrome Sensia (100 ASA)Inspiration
The scenery. The snow was glittering, and the lone tree was as much of a contrast to it as to the sky...Editing
E6 home-processed film, scanned. Post-processed with crop, re-sized for upload, resharpened a tad. Nothing special.In my camera bag
Two cameras, spare batteries, CPL, ND, and Skylight filters. Usually dispersed through the pockets of my photo jacket.Feedback
Knowing where the scenes are which look good in wintertime is a good thing. Then just pick the proper day, and go visit the place. Otherwise, use your free time to cruise your surroundings, and make notes of interesting spots. Create scenarios, and later on try to realize those. This helps you get properly prepared for each of those unique situations, which is especially important in winter.
