This black and white card features some of the first photographs ever taken of
snowflakes.
They say “no two snowflakes are alike” for good reason. As the temperature
drops low enough for water droplets in the air to freeze, the crystalline
nature of ice generally leads to six-sided structures, such as those featured
here. Every variation in temperature, humidity, wind, or even the type and
volume of particles in the air will affect the final shape of the snowflake,
meaning it’s incredibly unlikely two will ever be identical.
Photographs by Wilson Bentley (1865-1931)
