  6. Did you get the sparkly bits in the actual photo, or did you add them afterward? I ask because I’ve been trying to get something similar all winter in all kinds of light, with no luck yet.

    • Yes, those are real sparkles, Allen…not added afterward…and this was my first real success with capturing them like that….

      • Wow-great job. I’ll have to keep trying now that I know it’s possible!

  13. Stars! I’ve never seen a snowy landscape with its own stars. This is really fine, Scott.

    February 1, 2013 at 8:38 am

    • Yes, stars!! I only saw the bright sparkles when out on the trail, but was surprised and happy when I got home and saw them on the computer. Thank you, George. 🙂
