by twistedsifter

 

Alexey Kljatov aka ChaoticMind75 (featured previously) is an artist and photographer from Moscow, Russia.

In an ongoing series of incredible close-ups of individual snowflakes, Kljatov captures these delicate structures in remarkable clarity and detail. To get these stunning macro shots, Alexey uses a simple compact camera (Canon Powershot A650) with a lens reverse mounted onto the front. You can read all about his setup on his blog.

For those interested, prints are available through RedBubble and Fine Art America. Below you will find snowflakes from this current winter but you can see dozens more at the links below.
