Hi!

I´m going to spend next weekend in Andorra (a little country in the Pyrinees between Spain and France).

I want to take some pictures, so I´d need some tips about taking photographs in snowed landscapes.

All your help will be helpful.

Thanks in advance for another lesson,

Alexis

Meter on a gray card if possible. If not, take an average meter reading and overexpose it by one stop.
