Crystals



It snowed all afternoon and evening, hushing the city.

I spent a while at the corner of 112th and Broadway looking at the snowflakes that had fallen on my black wool coat under a hand lens. The shapes never stop being amazing. I start thinking about the infinite possibilities of snowflake crystal configurations and feel overwhelmed. I wish I could see them all.

Tonight I spent a while reading about snowflakes on-line. The on-line snowflake guide is great. And it's possible to spend a lot of time designing virtual paper snowflakes too.
