Day 51 – Lake Arrowhead Sledding

Posted in People, Places by Dave on February 21, 2010

We went to Lake Arrowhead this weekend with friends.  Inspired by the Olympics, we went sledding too.  If that weren’t enough, we had to hustle to get home in time for their soccer game today. They are fast asleep now.

How they were shot –  – same settings.

40D | 1/250th | f4.0 | ISO 250 | 105mm

I learned that in the snow, the camera wants to underexpose everything and makes the snow look gray. To fix that, I shot in manual exposure and ended up with these settings.  The camera was telling me that I was overexposed by almost 2 full stops. Glad I didn’t listen.
