Photographing In The Frigid Snow Weather

This past weekend i got the opportunity of a life time!!! Snow isn't something you see a whole lot down here in Texas ! The last time it snowed was in DEC 24Th 04!!! So i took this opportunity to sharpen my skills within photography. I was outside for an hour & 30 mins & i finished photographing the snow outside my figures felt as if they were going to fall off any second now!!! lol . I got the chance to see how my Digital SLR worked / survived in the harsh weather!!! It was like in the low 30s but knowing me i'm kinda use to that type of weather for i used to live up north in pittsbrugh pa but of course i started to get a little bit of home sick!!! I learn the every next nite how to photograph an event in that type of weather but there wasn't any snow falling from the sky & it wasn't as cold ever. On the nite that i did photograph an event outside it was in the lower 40s but it was still cold but get experience too!! So if i do have to do something like this again i know what to do!!!!
