Nice little piece in Science Friday on the man who originally made photos of snowflakes. Starting in the late 19th Century:

That's cool.

Getting the photos of the snowflakes, which Wilson Bentley explained in Popular Mechanics mag. in 1922, still seems hard & something you'd have to be hearty & patient for.
