Hi!
Using a clump of metal and glass for shooting in -20°C is an interesting experience. Whether you have good thick gloves or not, the cold has a habit of penetrating through all that insulation and making the fingers go numb and stiff. Even my face was getting stiff from having the cold radiate from the camera on my cheek bone.
However it was worth it!
Here's an amazing set of photos I captured today!
Which one of the next two photos looks correct? On the first one the white balance is taken from the whole picture, while on the second one, it is measured from the snow in the shadow of the trees.
(My monitor is currently in night mode, so everything has a slight reddish tint, and I can't be sure if the white balance is correctly calculated. (Not really a good setting for a photographer I know. But I do need some sleep after all.)

I love the composition on this one!
In the above photo, the sky was actually red. I sampled the white balance from the white fence of the terace in the beach café. If I had used the snow or the white parts of the building in the background (Messilä Manor), the foreground would've turned blue.

This one was shot in the town center. The concrete sheep shield bicyclists and pedestrians from any astray cars.
There are some bokeh balls in the background.
I hope you liked these photos. It was very much fun shooting them.
See ya!

Love the entry pic with the horizontal fence :)
Do you have decent photography gloves for the weather? I bough some a few years ago from amazon or ebay "for winter" and they didn't cut it for Autumn.
Thank you! I liked the composition too. It was the first thing I saw when I parked up in the small boat harbour in Messilä. I really had to shoot it the very next thing i'd do. The "fence" is actually mooring posts for boats.
Genuine pig nappa with wool lining, if you can find them. It's sad that these days those can be somewhat difficult to find. I can't really understand the obsession for using plastics in clothes manufacturing.
@gamer00,
Wow a lot of snow and -20C. If I went out I will definitely be frozen :D by the way, it's a great collection of photography!
