Snowflakes on a Wrought Iron Railing

The wrought iron railing on my steps going into my house, captured snowflakes when it was snowing lightly this morning. It was so cold they froze right on the metal. No two snowflakes are alike.

A famous snowflake photographer from Jericho, Vermont was Wilson A. Bentley. (link to a book of Wilson A. Bentley’s amazing snowflake photographs)

For over forty years, Wilson “Snowflake” Bentley (1865–1931) photographed thousands of individual snowflakes and perfected the innovative photomicrographic techniques” Smithsonian

Me? I photographed with an iphone
