Kenneth Libbrecht developed a special super-high-resolution photomicroscopy apparatus designed especially for snow crystal photography. His collaborator, photographer Patricia Rasmussen, used this technique to capture stunning pictures of Wisconsin snowflakes.
Libbrecht writes on the Web site, "Snowflakes are temporary works of art. After just a few short minutes on the ground, a fallen snowflake will lose its ornate structure, its unique pattern that will never again be repeated. Photography allows us to preserve a few of these minute masterpieces and to examine their form up close."
Take a look at the lovely photographs of these fleeting wonders.

Tiny Photos Going On Forever
he amazing image shown in the link below is an unreal photomosaic, which is a picture composed of other, smaller, pictures.
When viewed from a distance, a photomosaic appears like any other painting or photo, but upon closer inspection, the individual photos can be seen.
But this photomosaic is unlike any other you've seen before. Seemingly, every crevice of the man's face appears smooth and unpixelated (unlike the accompanying photo), but click on a spot on the photo and it takes you to an unending set of tiny photos that are made up of even tinier photos. Forever.
