It's late, but I did it. My computer has shed about 2 gigabytes (for the non-technical, that's a lot!) of waste information and is running almost twice as fast as before! Yay! =D
And now for a new emoticon I learned:
DANCE!

Okay, moving on. I have processed two of the snowflake pictures, but it's taking longer than expected. So, I'm going to post the snowflakes in small copyrighted pics and follow-up sometime tomorrow with a full-size edition after I extract the great ones for the web gallery. The snowflakes aren't on the gallery yet, but they will be within the next few days.
And now our featured story:
It was 10am as I traveled toward home that Saturday morn.
On the way, I notice what looks like glitter...
falling from the sunny, blue, and nearly cloudless sky.
Stopping at the gas station I notice a few of these glitter pieces...
resting upon my coat.
It is then that I see the tiny most intricate object...
I have ever seen with my unaided eye.
^This pic and a couple others
resisted the embedded copyright.
...ahem... sorry for the interruption.
The final two miles home I was in wonder...
at what I could only describe as bits of heaven floating to earth.
I have since heard stories about these small flakes.
Stories of how they spontaneously formed in mid-air..
or were belched out by the refineries,...
but only I seemed to have seen the details
of God's engraved signature.
God bless ya'll.

Beautiful pictures of the snowflakes! The macro shots are amazing and really close, I wish my camera could focus that close. Snowflakes are so cool!
These are gorgeous, Zac! I am particularly tickled by the one where you show three distinctly differently shaped flakes. It is so amazing that you captured that so well. And the dime is a fantastic idea to help visualize just how tiny these heavenly glass pieces look in real life. Beautiful!
Zachary,
Wow. Thanks for taking the time. Truly God's signature, I agree.
Also, I especially was moved by the feelings which dominated as I reflected on the beautiful tree, feelings lost if admirers do not pause long enough to magnify the image. The details usher one immediately outdoors, with heavy coat, gloves, and tobogon...
Again, thank you.
With that, I am...
Peter
Let me tell you again how much I love your snowflake pictures. Super duper!
Wow, Zachary. I am always in awe of the snowflake's. They're purity falling from the sky - so delicate and unique.
I appreciate the comment that you've left me on my photos blog today.
We truly are blessed, aren't we?
I'm adding myself to your list of follower's, if you don't mind :)
