That's what you get for trusting your camera to do the metering on the snow.

And scale the damn pictures down to <500kB before posting. I didn't even look at the full version of this.

He makes a good point. For winter photography, I usually over-expose by a half or full stop (on film, not sure if digital is the same way). I know it sounds weird, but your camera tries to make the snow middle-gray, so over-exposing helps compensate for it.

There's nothing wierd about it. The camera doesn't know whether you're photographing a black wall or a snowy field. The best it can do place the exposure in the middle of the film's or sensor's range.

For photographs whith a lot of white in them, like an outside snow scene, you should overexpose by at least one stop. I like to use 1.5 stops.

Conversely, for very dark scenes, you should underexpose. Otherwise, the camera will try to turn the dark tones into middle grey.
