Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Morning all

Undertaking the mammoth task of going through my archives culling the worst and re-editing the images and videos using 2023 skills

Think way less colour saturation and extreme contrast

Going to take a while, but here's the first installment

As more is posted, hopefully you'll see why this area is so well regarded

The consistency, quality & quantity of the snow is something to behold

Looking good, although I can't figure out how to get bigger images from Instagram.
Perhaps that's intentional; I sell my stuff through Alamy so I don't give away large copies....

I like the fact that with digital you can rework images as technology gets better.
Modern tools are much better (for example) at highlight recovery than the stuff we had in the early days of digital.
