Stunning Fred and what a great set up - very clever!
You are the snow flake King.
Tell us when you find 2 the same.
Merry Christmas.
Thanks Dean, but there's only one snowflake king and his name is Kenneth G. Libbrecht of Caltech. He's written the book (literally!) on snow crystals. He grows snow crystals in his lab under ideal conditions and can even produce identical twin snowflakes. His crystals have even appeared on US Postage Stamps.
If you want to know more about the fascinating world of snow crystals search for him on YouTube.
If you want to see some amazing snowflake images check out Don Komarechka & Alexey Kljatov on Flickr.
Fred.
