snowflake macro photo


Another crystal of my favourite snowflake type - simple hexagonal plates. I like unusual pattern near the edges. This crystal was around 1,5 mm in diameter. 8 shots averaged to boost signal-to-noise ratio. Glass background with backlight, additional lens Helios 44M-5, january 2013, Moscow. Looks better in original resolution: 1024x768.

Fractal supper

Fractal supper, lightpainting still life photo
(2048 x 1536)


I do this lightpainting picture just for fun. First time i see cabbage-head in perfect fractal form. This structure - big cone with spiral pattern of smaller cones on it's surface - repeated at least at three levels, maybe even more, but my magnifying glass don't show this clearly.

I wrote small post about lightpainting technique here: english / russian.

Ice rainbow 2

Posted on 05:48 by Unknown

rainbow snowflake macro photo


Another rainbow snowflake from january 2013. In center of this crystal can be seen coloured areas, caused by thin film optical interference effect (thanks to Don Komarechka!). 9 RAWs averaged. Looks better in original resolution (1600x1200).

More snowflakes in set snowflakes and snow crystals.
Also i wrote small article about my shooting technique.


This is cropped central region of this crystal after averaging, with 500% magnification and without any additional processing (no sharpening, color altering or any contrast curves):
