In my experience, the best opportunities for snow and ice photography are along streams and rivers.  You will often get a nice juxtaposition of stationary elements alongside a capture of motion in the water.  Have I shot this type of scene to death?  Could very well be!  I was still very happy when I saw my the preview of my first RAW appear on the LCD.  In my eyes, it’s a pretty surreal and tranquil sort of image.  I will look to do some snow and ice abstracts when they present themselves this year also, to further challenge my creative skills.

Silky and fresh cold water in a stream is complimented by a small icecap in New Jersey. Photo taken with the Tamron 16-300mm VC All-In-One lens and the Canon EOS M.
