The secret life of a snowflake

snowflake

I know its a bit off topic, but regular visitors to ShrinkRap will know I do love beautiful images, and Kenneth Libbrechts images of snowflakes cetainly are. As an art student many moons ago I was mightly influenced by the photographs of Lennart Nilsson. US physicist Kenneth Libbrecht has just been awarded The Lennart Nilsson Award for 2010 for his images of snowflakes – images that open our eyes to the beauty of nature.

Visit Kenneth Libbrechts website to see more of his beautiful images of snowflakes and facinating insight into his work.
