About Alexey Kljatov

Alexey Kljatov Hello! I'm Alexey Kljatov, a photographer from Moscow.

My passion is taking macro photos of real snowflakes. Natural snow crystals, due to their beauty, amazing shapes, structures, uniqueness and endless variety, are one of the most interesting subjects for macro photography.

Over more than 10 winters, I photographed many thousands of snowflakes. It's an amazing experience: uploading a series of photos you've just taken to your computer and see new crystals in full resolution on a large monitor! Each series brings new discoveries and a reason for surprise and admiration. But high-quality processing of small objects such as snow crystals requires a lot of time, patience and effort. Here you will find over 300 of the best snowflake pictures from my collection.

Today, my snowflake work become continuous process: each winter brings me lots of new photos, which have been added to my vast source archive. From that storage, i constantly pick beautiful, interesting and unusual specimens, and process them for this collection. My current workflow, started from initial stack processing and hand drawing precise isolation mask, includes many stages, it adaptive to different types of source photos, and evolved every year.

My photos have been published by NASA (first, second and third publications); Wall Street Journal, CNN, Daily Mail, The Week, Esquire, Fox News, NBC News, The Today show, USA Today, The Huffington Post, Discovery News, Wikipedia, used as illustrations in books and as music disk covers. Here is full list of publications.
