Description
Real snowflake macro photo: large stellar dendrite crystal, captured on dark woolen fabric in natural light. Version with blurred background.
This is one of most beautiful stellar dendrite snowflakes that i've captured past winter, but it was hard to process because of serious problems with aligning shots (wind shift and rotate this crystal when i've captured photo series). This snow crystal is large, around 5-6 millimeters from tip to tip. I like this crystal's ornate "design", and especially high detailed arms (they remind me six sharp swords, pointing inward).
8 identical photos, captured as fast series, was averaged to boost signal-to-noise ratio. Background: dark woolen fabric, natural light (grey cloudy sky), external optics Helios 44M-5, January 2013, Moscow, Russia.
Snowflake photos are available as stretched canvas prints, acrylic, metal, wood and framed prints, posters, greeting cards, Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy phone cases, throw pillows, duvet covers, shower curtains, tote bags, t-shirts, beach towels, portable battery chargers, carry-all pouches and coffee mugs. My collection includes over 100 macro photos of real snow crystals and constantly grows. Just click my name (above left) and see all snowflake images.
