Photograph by Wilson Alwyn "Snowflake" Bentley (1865–1931) one of the first known photographers of snowflakes. Each snow crystal was caught on a blackboard and transferred rapidly to a microscope slide where it was photographed through the microscope. He would capture more than 5,000 images of crystals in his lifetime. (Image source: The Metropolitan Museum)
