Pretty pics of snowflakes

These macro images of snow flakes were snapped by Russian photographer Andrew Osokin. They really capture the delicate beauty and complexity of snowflakes, to such an extent that it's difficult to believe they're actually real. They are. If you like 'em, you can see hundreds more of Andrew's images over on his LensArt website.

Thanks so much for sharing! I just saw a lighted snowflake in a window on my way home and decided I wanted one, but these are so much better...
