Portraits in the snow

I just discovered my camera has a wide variety of settings

for a wide variety of situations -- beach, fireworks,
aquarium, and most useful to me right this time of year,

taking photos in the bright whiteness of snow.

I'm in love with it, as long as there is strong enough sunlight.

My boys went skiing yesterday afternoon but since the sun sets

behind the mountain, it was too hard to get shots of the skiers.

The shots I got of the spectators,  my son's friend

and my two youngest boys, came out phenomenal.
