When it snowed on Wednesday here in Colorado, I set up my GoPro on a tripod on my daughters deck out back and set the GoPro to timelapse with 1 second intervals.
From a technical standpoint, I had wanted to not angle the GoPro too high as I was afraid snow would land on the lens, but if I didn't the image would be mostly the neighbors houses which didn't seem too photogenic. Luckily the deck is on the 2nd story, so that helped a bit, but I knew I might get snow on the lens. And sure enough I did, and the little sunshade lens hood I have for it, while it did help with keeping the snow off, it also ended up building up on it after a while. So while I was thinking it would be bad to have the snow get on the lens, in the end I actually like the look of the image slowly getting blocked by snow more and more.
I also picked a faster paced song to match the fast pace of the snow, and also while the classical music is great an all, I also like other types of music in my video's too. So the music may not be for everyone, but I think there will be others who do like it.
