12-FEB-2006

The storm that is hitting our New England friends just gave western Pennsylvania an inch or so of snow. I have seen a few wonderful
snowflake macros – this is not one of them! Went out on my balcony and played for a while, trying to capture the design of the snowflakes.
Too cold to keep trying for now! Thus, my first attempt!

Hope all our New England friends are staying warm and safe!!!

Like the detail in the snowflakes. It's snowing in Belgium too at the moment, but I'm unable to get this kind of detail. Beautiful.

Nice one, Mindy. It's good to have a reminder what this 'snow' stuff looks like. Don't expect we'll get any until April!
