Ok. It was just high time to use a song or movie title again. I took those images of a snowstorm but I did not even wear a hat or gloves or a jacket.

I simply stepped outside on my patio and tried to capture the falling snow. The fantastic 2.8/70-200 II IS attached to my 6D. I tried different focal lengths, apertures and shutter speeds and focused on the snow flakes or on the trees in the back. All to capture the beauty of the falling snow.

For the last three shots I did not change anything but nature did. They still look different because the wind changed all the time and that changed the look of the images.

The snow fall was heavy but short and it was too warm. After a couple of minutes all was over and the snow was gone. It seems we need to wait a little bit longer for winter.
