IMO you have metered the snow very nicely. I love the whiteness and the blues and clouds and sky and water..all escellent colors! Must be the velvia?:}
Love the framing! Just an all around beautiful picture Dan.

Dan, this snow looks just like snow. If you want to show detail in the snow there has to be detail visible. Most of the images that show snow other than white are taken at early morning or late evening when the light is skimming along the ground. Otherwise the snow will look pretty white. If you underexpose the snow then you run the risk of underexposing your shadows too. Do you want empty shadows or off white snow. Your choice.

What I've gathered from searching on the net, and usefilm, is that to make your snow stay white you open up your apeture by a stop or two. Meters take the brightest thing in the shot and make it 18% grey. That means that it will want to turn your white snow to grey. To avoid this open your apeture to let more light in and this will add the light needed to make the grey snow white.
Hope this helps!
By the way, I like the shot! I like the way that the trees lead your eye through the shot!

ive heard that if you overexpose what the meter reads by a couple stops then the snow will turn out better, i just tried it on a couple rolls this week in the snow, still havnt got them back though so im not sure if i was doin it right, but im pretty sure thats the idea...probably need to ask someone that knows more about it, anyway this is a good shot, i like the reflections of the clouds and trees in the water, good job.....................joe
