📸 3. Birds in Snow or Rain: Mood-Driven Shots

Why it works:

Weather tells a story. Snowflakes or raindrops give texture and motion to your photo, invoking emotion and atmosphere.

How to do it:

  • Use fast shutter speed (1/1000s) to freeze rain or snow.
  • A slower shutter can blur the precipitation for mood.
  • Increase ISO and use image stabilization.

Best Subjects:

  • Cardinals or robins in snow.
  • Sparrows shaking off raindrops.
  • Ducks swimming in a soft drizzle.
