Piper PA-18 Super Cub on Skis takes off in the snow. The PA-18 is Alaska’s work horse airplane and it seems to do pretty well in the lower 48 as well. Of course, the difficulty to capturing good airplane images in the winter with snow, is to keep the shutter speed lower enough to blur the prop and pan well enough to keep the wings and fuselage in sharp focus while dealing with bright, hard mid-day light. A 1/125s shutter speed is about as high as I like for a click like this one.
