❝ How full of the creative genius is the air in which these are generated! I should hardly admire more if real stars fell and lodged on my coat. Nature is full of genius, full of divinity, so that not a snowflake escapes it's fashioning hand.❞
:: Thoreau


Out side snow is falling. The big, white, fluffy flakes: the perfect crystal formations elude my efforts to photograph. In a google search you will find incredible examples of snowflakes. SnowCrystals has been my favourite site to visit for a number of years now.
