snow or camera problem?

[Dan Cook]

Yesterday it was snowing pretty good, so I decided to snap a few pictures for fun. When I was retreving them, I got this back:

Are those just snowflakes or a bigger problem? Because i took one indoors and they didn't show up, so I'm thinking snow.

Those falling white flakes sure look like snow to me, but I must admit living in Phoenix it's been awhile since I've seen it. :wink:

Did you have the flash on? If so, then the closer snowflakes will reflect back as over exposed points.

It probably is snow, though I've taken snow fall pictures before and never captured big flakes before.

It's possible that it's some new plague that can only been seen when it's snowing and when one takes a picture. I'd go see a doctor very soon.

I've taken a couple winter pics that had that effect..

I believe that is was the flash reflecting off the snow.. actually can make for some pretty cool pics sometimes! 8)

That's what happens when you get too far north of the front.

The true meaning of "hydrometeors"!

Actually, some of the instruments to figure out drop size distrubutions and hydrometeor type are simply high speed cameras (and some not!) mounted in housings and stuck on aircraft.
