My Winter Photography Experience
I keep returning year after year to photograph Winter scenes and I sometimes wonder why, with the cold and harsh conditions. The simple answer is the scenes are stunningly beautiful. For me, the Canadian Rockies stand out from the other locations.
Winter photography may consist of a totally snow-covered mountain at sunrise or sunset, which is a sight to behold. Throw in some calm water reflecting the mountain and sky and it just becomes incredible. The exploration is more difficult than other times of the year, but the rewards justify dealing with the deep snow and cold conditions every time.
Winter Landscapes Photography – Reflections of a Photographer
Capturing the beauty of Winter Landscapes can be challenging because of the cold temperatures and, at times, bitterly frigid winds.
Yet, I continue to be drawn to capturing these winter landscape photos as the contrast of colors – blue skies or red train cars, or softly lit windows are scenes that make me want to go there in person…. Perhaps with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate in hand…but the photos in my Winter Landscape photography gallery capture the beauty of snow and winter… and that makes the journey worthwhile.

Creating Winter Fine Art Prints
Fresh Winter snow can provide a soft feel to the scene. Jagged ice can provide the opposite feel. Snow-covered mountains are a favorite for Wintertime prints. It can be a challenge when there is a lack of Spring or Fall color, but when this is overcome, the resulting Fine Art Prints can add a dramatic focal point to any room.
Visiting and Photographing Winter Scenes
Landscape and Nature Photography in Winter has always presented to most challenges to me as a photographer. Although snow-covered mountains are beautiful and I will continue to photograph them, there is a lack of warmth that scenes from other seasons have. It is the nature of Winter, I suppose.
The beauty of Winter landscape photographs can be the soft, blankets of snow on the fields, trees, and the rocks in the rivers. The photographs present a totally different look to the same scene that you might photograph during other seasons.
The mountains of the Canadian Rockies are probably my favorite place to photograph winter and I will be returning there again to capture some scenes that I have missed out on in the past. See also our galleries for Mountains and Spitsbergen.

Winter landscapes and tree communities subjects of First Friday Artwalk
The first snow of the year has fallen, blanketing the landscape in a gentle white layer of beauty. The spirits of those who love fresh flakes falling from the sky are heightened as the onset of winter heralds the arrival of a season that, in the Yampa Valley, is celebrated in many different ways.
What has not cooled is the monthly display of art that is the First Friday Artwalk.
This month the Jace Romick/R-Diamond Gallery, at 833 Lincoln Ave., is featuring art that celebrates the winter season and the sport that helped put Steamboat Springs on the map — skiing. The gallery is displaying the iconic ski photography of Ray Atkeson (1907-1990).
Atkeson is notable for his work capturing the power of the sport from the 1930s through the 1950s. He is known for creating some of the more memorable black and white images of majestic turns being made on the slopes in the western reaches of the United States.
The Depot Arts Center, 1001 13th St., captures the spirit of snow with its Winter Wonderland Member Show that opens Friday with a 5-8 p.m. reception. Works from Jill Bergman, Leslie Lovejoy, Jan Spencer and Jane Sindell will present the season of snowflakes in various mediums including watercolors, linocut with gouache and pastels.
The Platform Gallery at The Depot Arts Center will play host to the works of Erin Branscum. Branscum is a RiverWalk Collective member as well as an art teacher at Sleeping Giant School. Her paintings in oil, acrylic and watercolor capture different views and perspectives from around Routt County. Using her “Texan heritage” as a lens, Branscum presents various depictions of Western culture, animals and landscapes.
Branscum has lived in Steamboat Springs for five years. After moving here from Texas, she became a paraprofessional at Steamboat Springs Middle School. The inspiration and energy she drew from that position inspired her to get her master’s degree in education and to become the art teacher at Sleeping Giant. Outdoor spaces serve as her muse when it comes to the creation of her art. She seeks to continually capture “the beauty of the outdoors, and then share it with the world.”
“I love teaching and have continued my love for art in my free time. I love that I get to do both,” Brasncum explained. “I have always loved creating and making artwork, especially about the mountains and outdoors.”
The Schoonover Gallery, at 929 Lincoln Ave., is featuring the art of Gary Oakley. Oakley is a painter who captures the beauty, energy and mystique of the American West. He uses a square format to build depth through the use of pigments and layers of paint. The result is a work of art that pulls the viewer into the perspective of the piece and the landscape that it captures.
Pine Moon Fine Art will be hosting an art exhibit titled, “Trees: Artistry Through the Seasons,” which opens Friday at 117 9th St. in Steamboat Springs. The show aims to capture the collective power of trees and their ability to communicate, connect and provide stability to each other while also illustrating their life-bringing role in our lives and the lives of animals. All are invited to enjoy the “forest” of art at the opening reception 5-8 p.m. Friday.
