It is -29 with the windchill in Saskatoon today and our city is covered with a fresh blanket of fluffy white snow. It is no secret that I am generally not a big fan of cold and snow. It is often, or to be completely truthful, it is almost always a complication, a barrier, and a frustration for wheelchair users.
Except.
However.
I just came across these images by Russian photographer, Alexey Kljatov, (ChaoticMind75) that, although do not make my issues with snow any better, certainly do make me see it a little differently. His photos of snowflakes are so beautiful you will probably never look at snow the same way again. This was the last place I expected to find any beauty today. What a fantastic surprise!
For the full story on how he made these photos using the most humble of equipment, and to see more breathtaking photogaphs, please visit his Flickr page or:
