Beautiful images Tom. The 2nd one is winter wonderland perfect.

Very nice, Robert. I can’t tell if you are happy about the snow? It is still a novelty here but come February we will be wishing it gone!

Very nice, Preston! There is a great sense of dimensions and depth in your image – partly from the softness of the surrounding snow covered bushes/trees and the colours.

Thanks Dave. Do you mean the pesky snowflake piece behind the one I was shooting? Or the material I am shooting it on?

One thing that is quite tricky with snowflakes is how some will fuse together with others and even pieces of others. In this case, the piece helped hold the snowflake upright, but it also created a messy background. Always pros and cons.

Beautiful! Frost is like snowflakes…so unique. Great catch.

That is a heavy, wet looking snow, John! Did it last long?

Good contrast of the snow on the red bricks. It pops. And the green peeking out too!

Oh, I like this one. The colours make it feel extra cold (should be in this week’s challenge!).

Looks like a “stay inside” kinda day, Kent!

Nice image Jasenka. It must be cold as your boyfriend has snow in his hair that isn’t melting! Brrrr!

I will kick us off with a snowflake macro (it finally snowed! I was so excited) that I shot last week:

Great work, Robert! A lovely abstract. Congrats on POTW!

We all do, Andre! Some of those accidental ones turn out okay too! I wrote a guide on ICM for Photzy. You can find it here: https://photzy.com/mastering-intentional-camera-movement-free-quick-guide/

It is lots of fun and you can get some pretty amazing results.

Happy shooting!

Another super image, Elin.

Good one, Preston!

Wow! Great burst of colours, Pat.

Intentional Camera Movement (as opposed to the unintentional kind that occurs before that first cup of coffee in the morning! ;))

A longer shutter speed and sweep of the camera horizontally in this case, Andre.

Definitely conveys a forlorn, moodiness, Elin. Great job.

🙂

Brrrr! Winter is coming.
