Stunning macro! Not sure how you managed that stacking but it looks great!! Lots of detail on the flake.

I see a bit of grain in the BG which I am sure can be easily removed

WOW! this is beautiful I like it very much. I have a slight reservation over composition otherwise spot on.

Very nice. I'm impressed that you got so much detail in this little snowflake. Looks good on black bg. What do you think of a square crop?

[MiroslavMaric]

Thanks to everyone! I agree the crop could be a different one (I'm not the fan of square crop, just my bad habit).

Cheers,

I like the bluish tint. Nicely done. I am guessing you used a rail, is that correct?

I am guessing you used a rail, is that correct?

Thanks Ron, yes you are right, I used rail.

Amazing capture, Miro!

Came across this thumbnail and opened it, now I cannot take my eyes off, cannot help thinking how delicate a snowflake is and what a great job you have done in creating this image - congratulations!

Kind regards,
