Thought it would be a good idea to take a walk up here before Skibowl opened. The weather report for Thanksgiving morning looked promising. The sunrise wasn't as I expectd, I think it was too clear, not much color. So, B+W seemed like a better way to go. I think this would be better at sunset also. The snow was also deeper than I planned for.
Anyway, this is my first winter with a DSLR and I plan on doing some shooting so any advice on getting snow right and winter scenes in general would be appreciated.

I hope you get some good suggestions, because I haven't done a lot of winter photography myself and would like to do a bit more this winter. I'll keep an eye on this thread.
I like the middle third of the photo, and the mountain and cabin look good. The flat sky and foreground aren't working for you though, and the shadows are a bit plugged. This looks like it would be a great place to visit when the sky is dramatic.
