I've been wanting to capture snowflakes for a while, and finally managed to rig up a system to allow me to bring snowflakes inside to photograph under hot lights. I can keep them frozen for about 5 minutes - usually enough time to photograph them.

They are truly amazing to view up close - and I've yet to see two of the same!

These photos are not digitally zoomed in or cropped, so that is the actual image from the camera's sensor.
