Snow Crystal No. 1205
Pictures by Wilson A. Bentley
Wilson Bentley's Snow Crystal No. 1205 shows a single six-sided snowflake glowing white against deep navy, every ridge and facet in sharp detail. Bentley photographed snow through a microscope in Jericho, Vermont, around 1890, and his thousands of images made famous the idea that no two snowflakes are alike. For someone who is one of a kind.
