Snow random pictures thread.

Great pics Alex , Just a quick tip , if you use the exposure compensation mode on your camera , I am sure yours has , try adding / + 1 or 2 stops exposure when shooting in the snow . Don`t forget to set it back to zero once you are photographing under normal conditions . I took a libity of trying to improve your pics , just lifted the levels and shadows in photoshop . See how the snow looks a better colour , and hopefully your figures colours look more punchy . I can remove these if they have upset you in anyway , but such nice photos I thought deserved a little help . Hope you like them Alex . No Snow here .

Nice photos Alexander!

And nice touch up Chip! Most people don't know to adjust the exposure in snow.

This is a photo of the club's arctic adventurer I shot some years ago. He has a few
bits of the Action Soldier set for the 45th anniversary that was sold only through
Walmart.



It's been so long, as I recall the backpack, snowshoes and pick were part of the
anniversary set. Maybe the belt as well. I thought it odd that they did that set to
go along with an Action Soldier in green fatigues.

I very much appreciate your helpful advice on exposure when shooting in the snow, I’m going to be taking this on board and I’m going to try it out next time me and dad go out to take mam snow random outside pictures. Thanks again for the advice . I’m pleased that you thought that they were such nice pictures. You haven’t upset me in anyway at all Chip. That’s a shame you haven’t got snow yet where you are, hopefully you will though soon.

Thank you very much for sharing your photo of the club's arctic adventurer that you shot some years ago.

All good Alex

I like your latest photo Daryl , would like to see a bit more of the rifle , it looks good . Does the jacket have grey cuffs and collar ? He looks a bit fed up .

No snow here of course, ...ever, so no snow shots from me unless of course I fake it.
Have to say Jim that your bloke looks to me like he's just put far too much washing powder in the washing machine and is wondering how to clean up the mess!
 

You got snow! I know you’ve been wishing for snow, Alex! That’s quite a fun Happy New Year gift, and it looks like you made the most of the opportunity!

Yes, the jacket has grey cuffs and collar.

I have a small stack of mailer boxes, and went looking for him about the rifle. I thought the entire
stack was Joe club figures. I was surprised that one of them were two vintage Joes with crisp Action
Soldier uniforms! I forgot that I had them.

But for some reason the Arctic Adventurer was not in that stack, along with two other club figures.
Now it's driving me crazy wondering where they are.

Once I find him, I will do a photo where you can get a better look at the rifle.

Fantastic snow pics guys!!

Tom K says "Cold, what cold?"

Tom K is a action hero so he can brave the cold. I’m liking the picture of him.

Tom K is as tough as that cool G-Shock wristwatch he's wearing!

he must have fed a few pints already to stay warm on the inside

Thanks TheOneManKid for sharing your snow picture.

Nice pic! The footprints in the snow behind the fig are a clever detail!

Awesome snow photos!

Took my Land Adventurer out in the snow the other day in a bashed cold weather outfit.






And a testament to the snowfall here in my area.

Great shots Ian!

NO FAIR Fellers! 
Starting a thread that I can't take part in.
NO snow here...ever!
Anyway,  it does say "random" and as there's a distinctly Russian theme happening across AMMO right now, here's my MAM out on the steppes riding his snow-mobile and wearing his fur ushanka.
(Yes I know, he forgot his mittens, but he's only going out to pick up some more vodka and it functions perfectly as anti-freeze!)
