How do you approach photography with winter creeping in, less light and greyer skies?
Still carry a camera on most days, but shoot a lot less, and most of it is black & white, in the winter months.
Colour film doesn't really make sense for me, with the little (and dull) light.Any tips for winter photography?
If you never really did long exposures that might be a worthwhile endeavour!
Do get a proper tripod. And do yourself a favour and get one with a ball head.Bring spare batteries for your things and keep them close to your body (they deplete much faster in the cold).
Probably goes without saying - but get some gloves that keep your hands warm, but that you can still operate your camera with.
Kinda depends on what / how you're shooting, but ideally the camera you have with you is switched on and in your hand at all times (at least not tucked away inside your backpack) - this is harder / more annoying in the winter time, but you kinda have to make it work - otherwise you'll just be carrying your stuff around not actually taking any pictures 🙂

How do you approach photography with winter creeping in, less light and greyer skies? I am usually very much a good-weather photographer. I like warm tones and interesting contrasts created by strong and sharp shadows.
