Standing in the middle of Fountain Square, head back, entranced by the freshly falling snow – time slowed as the flakes swirled in the air. The surreal sense of being shrunk in size and dropped into a snow-globe land, newly twisted and turned breezed through my head.
Imagine a topsy-turvy world with gigantic ice crystals. Big enough to appreciate the detail of raiser sharp edges and beautiful facets.

A scientific based art, Kenneth Libbrecht carved a vocation out of snowflakes. He provides insight into a miniature world through photographs of snowflakes on chilled glass slides. Revealing the truth that no two are a like. Glean a taste of their beauty before melting on your tongue or sculpted into a snow-cone!
