Snowy Subaru picture thread

I'm on my first Subaru, and I've always thought that snow in Minnesota would be the ultimate reason to own one... I was right

Here's mine today.. Merry xmas to me



Lets see yours!

 

I'm on my first winter with a Subaru! I am in love, and this was my WRX this morning.. snow packed tires and all.

 

Full rear coat of snow after drive to work recently...How can I get this on entire car?

 

Did you take that picture with a gourd?

 

Clearly taken with the potato cam. Come on dude

 

potatos are so last year.

 

Nah, sideways hoonage ends up on the back of your car as well.

 

Here's a few from a couple weeks ago with some fellow MN Subaru members:

 

is that a effect your camera uses? / who is taking those photos? looks good

 

The last one with the animated falling snow is something Goole/Picasa does to snowy pictures.

Aside from that, I took all of the photos with my camera mounted to a 20ft boom hanging off the cars and used a slow shutter speed to get the movement. In reality, the cars were in neutral, rolling down a hill at about 5 MPH.

 

Those cars looks so clean.

 

Good work. What gear are you using?

 

Thanks. Nikon D300s with a Sigma 10-20mm. Since it was mostly still light out when I did the shoot, I stacked an ND filter with a polarizer.

Here's another couple that I took with the rig recently:

 

Really nice! I just sold my D300 with my DX lenses. You know what that means!

Here's a couple to add to the thread.




Last winter..

 

.......Adding mines soon!

 

Love the pictures guys, hoping for more snow in the coming weeks.. maybe we could do an impromptu meet in a parking lot somewhere

 

What settings did you use for this picture?

 

Bracketed 1 shot. -1, 0, +1 in Lightroom.

8 seconds at f/8, 200 ISO and 17mm.

If you wanna meet up and do some shooting let me know!

 

Snow on my Subaru? OK


Yes....there really is a Subaru in there:



My other 2 Subarus are in garages.

 

Here is one I took a few days ago of my bugeye

 

Here are a couple of shots I took last year. I have not had the time for pictures during any snow this year.

 

Those were taken on Pokegama last year

 

This is on lake Minnetonka last weekend...

Got these during the omgwtfbbw October blizzard in South Dakota :

 

Got a few from this weekend:

 

My LGT got plowed in!

 

Just open the door and put it in reverse

 

Oh man I would have such a great one for you guys. I drove my car out onto a lake and to my surprise the snow was about a foot deeper than the middle of my wheels. Got completely stuck when I stopped. At one point there was air underneath my tires and the car was being held up by snow under the middle of it. Didn't take a picture because I'm going to let that memory die since I can barely live with the shame as-is. I was stuck for SEVERAL hours.

 

Had to snap a pic of my Rex while it's clean lol parked in my spot at the shop i work in. Never get to drive her with these stupid 12-13 hour shifts

 

If it makes you feel any better I saw a Chevy pickup in a similar situation out on the st. Croix today.

 

Oh, I was stuck for hours because only one of the trucks on the lake could make it out to my car. Was a very ****ty situation for everyone

 

Yea I felt bad passing by him but I think if I would have stopped I would have been doomed as well, there were several cars out there that seemed to be going nowhere fast

 

lol now THAT'S what I call a snowy Subaru!

 

Here's some more of mine winter.

 

night shots

 

From tonight - taken with my cellphone. Need to bring my camera with me so I can get some actually decent pics some time

 

My wagon after some late night drifting. Not sure how the smiley got there
