I recently stumbled upon this post, where a photographer Photographer Alexey Kljatov takes incredible close-up photos of snowflakes in his backyard in Moscow.
"I capture snowflakes on the open balcony of my house, mostly on glass surface, lighted by an LED flashlight from the opposite side of the glass, and sometimes in natural light, using dark woolen fabrics as background."- Alexey Kljatov
His photography is amazing and mesmerizing definitely, but the fact that these beautifully carved snowflakes, are none, but the beauty bestowed by our creator.
I am at awe to see such beautiful and distinct shapes of the snowflakes, each different and unique than the other. They all possess intricate patterns and meticulously crafted designs, thus showcasing how much the creator loves us and what beauty he wishes to instill in this world. If we could just stop by these tiny observations and ponder at how our lord can make such beautiful carvings and designs, the virtue of selflessness, may to some extent, get inculcated within us.
I personally feel that no men can design such beautiful snowflakes, enriched with an echanting beauty. Really, men can never overpower the creator. Amazing indeed!
Have a look at the snowflakes and be in awe at the beauty of nature for a while :)
