About.com's Guide to Winter Photography
About.com has published a good guide to getting out and about during the winter months with your camera.
“The hours of daylight are shorter in winter, but this doesn’t really alter the possibilities for most types of photography. For working outdoors, the lower height of the sun in the sky means that you get more interesting lighting - assuming the sun is visible. Often in summer the light across the middle of the day is uninteresting as the sun is too close to overhead, while in winter you can work through the day. Winter tends to give more variable weather too, sometimes creating additional interest.”
