Incredible Examples of Snowflake Photography

Truely incredible. Amazing!

Can’t even believe how the ice can naturally take such a complex looking form.

Beautiful!

Wow! These are just totally amazing! If you’d said “pick a favorite” I wouldn’t be able to. But I do have to say the first one would give the rest a run for their money!

How perfectly shaped are the snowflakes. It’s ridiculous to believe that all this amazing nature comes from the evolution, it’s obviously the hand of a higher Power.

Wonderfull, I take my canon and go out

Wow, those are unbelievable. Gorgeous!

amazing the pictures xd! congratulations for the post! i always read it. bye

Thanks for such a fantastic post. Wow.

I’m sure I’m not the only one wanting to know the answer to this: How on earth do you go about getting such amazing shots?

I finally realize the design from my paper snowflake cut outs in elementary were right! haha..these are so sick!

Some of them are unbelievable.
Really cool

I don’t think a regular macro lens allows to take those pictures… u’ill need a special 5:1 macro lens or something like that, needless to say, very expensive lenses lol… and quite a lot of patience and experience.

You should have thrown an image of a paper snowflake in the end.

Great photos, though.

The most beautiful collection of snowflake photography I have ever seen! Thank You for posting these wonderful images ~

Lovely! Nature always has a way to amaze people. I’m thinking of using one of these as my desktop wallpaper.

Agree. It’s really hard to find high quality photos. Thanks for you effort!

wow, amazing photos you got here…

Awesome post! Thanks.

Awesome view of one small part of God’s creation! Thanks for posting!

Incredible how something so basic as ice crystals formed from water attached to dust in cold temperature can be so beautiful. Now consider how its form allows it to attach to others like it to form a blanket that will melt slowly so to nurish the earth.

Great inspiration for xmas time

Amazing, nice post

Wow awesome picx of snowflakes…

I’m glad you all liked my post! They really incredible tiny little pieces of nature!

More like this from me to come f’sure!

Simply amazing photos!

Amazing :O

Beauuutiful…excellent photography and collection. Thanks Callum

Every snowflake? Oh my god, this woman tries hard! (A little science knowledge would supersede such comments.)

What’s all this fuss about? Is this site becoming a platform for creationists?

Are the shots amazing, or the snowflakes??? I think it’s a misunderstanding.

These are just incredible. Its mind boggling how they have perfect rotational symmetry! How does that happen? And of course, I am very jealous of the photography skills of ALL the showcased artists! =D Thanks so so much WDD and to those who shared their work. And Merry Christmas everyone!

nice photos

Amazing … Perfect photos!!

Wow, some incredible photos.

Nature truly is the greatest designer, some of those shapes are so perfect it’s almost unbelievable.

These guys must have some expensive macro lenses, I’d love to give this a try.

Wow, that is the only time I have ever scrolled through and looked at every single photo on the list!

Beautiful pix. Have always been amazed at the formation of a snow flake. Thanks for posting.

To me it’s the shots that are amazing. Billions of similar snowflakes fall every single day but it’s not often they are captured for the like of us to admire in this way.

Hello,

Thank you for featuring my photo “Birth of a Snowflake” (third one down – ice crystal forming inside a frozen water drop). A truly remarkable collection of photos for sure.

In case anyone is wondering, this photo was taken with the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro lens.

Thanks Again!

Great Shot…Few Wonders of our earth..

I totally love it….

Truely incredible

W/ lots of love and Kiss.

Emma.

Wow! Isn’t nature a wonderful masterpiece?

Amazing how something I dislike when it all falls on my car and driveway is so appealing when individualized. Some great photos here. I found the one that looks like it fell a bit before it completely formed to be the most intriguing. (The one labeled Flickr 2145993104 – 6th from the bottom in this post.) The others seem perfectly symmetrical, so this one stands out from the rest.

wow :*

Please be aware these are not his photos, one was taken by me and has been linked to from my flickr account, as have the rest.

If you’d like to use my shot [multicolored one] for anything, just ask.
Can see the rest of my snowflake macro shots here:

I’m taking my shots with a cheap e-series nikon lens on bellows [to hold the lens far away from the camera]. It takes a lot of patience. The hardest part is getting everything set correctly before the darn thing melts! This usually means working when and where it’s way below freezing.

I took mine with a standard 18-55 kit lens on backwards using a reverse ring.

I saw and read about yours when I put mine up earlier this year, they’re stunning.

I’m glad you enjoyed it so much, there was a lot to take in and look at! I looked at each photo for about 5 minutes when I was compiling the list, I was fascinated!

No problem Loren, is a magnificent photo I gotta get myself one of those lenses!

That’s why the post is called what it’s called, it’s a showcase of photographers work, not my work! I have an interest in Photography and appreciate it but I wouldn’t know where to start

Wow! Amazing Photographs…. I really wonder at nature seeing these images…. Awesome… Thanks for sharing….

Wonderful. Really nice to see on the day that Essex, UK was utterly blanketed in snow.

Nature is truly the greatest designer!

Incredible! Nice photos!!!

I’ve always been fascinated with “real” snowflakes. These photos are outstanding.

amazing…,

Stunning…. just love it

“Although the web is a great place to look for quick inspiration for a project, nothing can beat going on a long walk in nature.”

The first parapraph said it all.

So very cool… thanks!

Yes – makes you wonder where the invisible artist is

Snow. The perfect association for December. What a wonderful way to end the year. Also, a great homage to Nature’s own art. Can anybody beat it?

Unbelievable! Nature is nice!

If you’d like to see how I take my snowflake images and a lot more examples please check out my set on Flickr.

Really great to look at the details of each one. You never know how amazing it is when it is falling and freezing you.
