What's your go to rule for nailing snow exposures?
Thanks Jim. No real go to settings. Dependant on factors such as how much snow vs non-snow in the frame. Is it sunny or overcast. And with the snow, am I shooting into the sun, sun behind me, etc. Sometimes I will under expose by a full stop or more. For the ones above, I think I under exposed by ⅓ - ⅔ stop.

Use an incident meter
A common rule of thumb for reflective meters is +2 stops.

@OregonSun I really like those moody shots you're posting lately.
Also that 50mm 1.7 is such a nice lens, I love mine 🌟

..splendid as always 🌟
Have you tried looking at that image horizontally flipped?
I'd say it's much nicer (for me, at least) as that way it's sort-of "approaching" instead of "wandering off".
Just an idea..

So... after a few dark rums last night, I seem to have ordered a Holga 120N, a pouch of Cinestill Df96 and a 5 pack of TMAX 100 (120).
Guess what I'll be doing this weekend?

Thank you for your kind word. I did just now try it flipped in Lightroom. I strongly prefer the original as is.

Dood you bought the 120N not the GFCN? I’ll be interested to see your results - plastic lens vs glass lens.
Thing is the plastic lens in my Reto UltraWide n Slim is great, so just because it is plastic does not mean much.
Aaand if it gives you the look you want, that’s what matters. Anyway, looking forward to your results!
P.s on the first ‘test’ roll do not tape up the camera. Just shoot a roll and see if it is light tight. Mine is completely light tight stock and so yours may be too.
Pps next time if you can order the DF96 in liquid form. I found the powdered pouch form a real pain to get to dissolve completely, and the dust gets into the air. So wear a mask when you mix it. Also make sure to use distilled water! Any minerals in water effects the chemistry.

I struggled with getting the GFCN, and decided that the whole point is to get as much Holga character as possible! Hence the plastic lens. (Though from what I read online, it seems like there isn’t too much difference in sharpness. Just that the glass lens won’t scratch as easily.)
I have another reason for getting the 120N. I’m working on a personal fine art project that involves 3D models of vintage cameras, and I wanted the more popular 120N version for that purpose. The only pre-modeled Holga I could find isn’t a very good one, and it’s expensive (3x the price of a real Holga!), so I decided to just model it myself. The real Holga will be used as a visual and measurement template, and I can also photograph the body textures, icons and 120N sticker to use as “image maps” on the finished 3D model.
I’ve owned a Holga in the past (and may still own it, but I have no clue where it is!), so I’m aware of the leaks and quirks. The one I had (have?) was modded with “flocking” inside to minimize leaks and internal reflections. I seem to remember adding a cover over the red frame counter window as well?
I’m also a Df96 veteran. Getting the liquid shipped to Brooklyn is a pain and not worth traveling to B&H, so I went for the powder. I’ve mixed my own in the past, so should be fine. Heading to Target now to pick up some distilled water!
