The One

If you enlarge this you should be able to see that one totally unique snowflake that fell this morning on my Crabapple tree at just that one moment in time when I pressed the shutter. I have tried repeatedly to catch one of these little, tiny pieces of perfection. I'm not sure how long I stood in my front yard as this gorgeous stuff floated around me and landed on the still red apples. I didn't realize I was cold until I turned to go back in the house. I never put myself in a situation to knowingly get cold - at least not until I had a macro lens. If my hands were steadier maybe I could have caught more of these little pieces of perfection. But, today, I am totally happy with this one. I have been spending time lately shooting RAW files and it sure helped with this. I have also been trying to figure out histograms. Makes perfect sense - or at least as much as I need to understand today.
Gorgeous! FAV! We are hoping for some snow tonight. Am getting my macro filters ready!!

That is definitely an Instant Fav!! Such a beautiful part of Nature. I never knew before 365 that one could actually capture a picture of a single snowflake.
