    For winter photography I have a pair of gloves with open fingers, and a
    mitten flap that pulls over them to warm the digits up between shots. I
    have also found batting gloves (buy a left and a right-handed model) keep
    off the spring chill. The leather is very supple and affords a good grip
    and touch. Paired with the open-finger mittens they form a cozy combo.
