Freezy Night

Freezy Night

This images was taken around 11:30 pm after the snow storm. The trees has no leaves but full of snow. I used my Nikon D3000 with my 18-55 mm lens. The shutter speed for this was 1/200 sec with an aperture of 4.5, and an ISO speed of 1600. To get the maximum width of the image, I set my focal length to 18 mm. I also use my Nikon SB-600 flash.

I like this shot because the trees were covered with snow and ice and the night was so bright because of the bright moon and a clear sky. That night was really cold but it did not stop me from going out there and shoot. That big white dot on the sky was actually the moon that shined the whole place that it almost tempted me to drive around the area.

Note:

To get this shot, I used the flash to shine all the darker areas around the trees. If you have a better lens than what I have (which in this case, most of the lens are better that what I have), you can use it. I recommend that you use a prime lens which is 85mm or the 50mm lens.
