ENTRY DESCRIPTION
It was February 8th 2021 when, again, relatively much snow fell in The Netherlands. Being prepared for this photo project for some years, finally I got the chance to work it out on that evening. I already determined the composition, the focus length and were to put my two flashlights. All my gear was weather sealed. Now it was a matter of waiting for the snowfall to become intense enough, with snowflakes that were big enough to be beautifully captured by the camera. After minutes of waiting, while keeping an eye on the weather app, the density of the snowfall increased significantly. Now the party could begin!
