Snowflake

This is my first attempt at doing macrophotography of a snowflake. It's not an easy thing to do.

Setup:

Sport glove, left out in the cold for 10 min
Canon 5D III
Canon EF 100 mm f/2.8 L lens
Canon twin flash

What I learned:

Snowflakes are tiny!
I need to get an extension tube to get closer to a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio next time.
My fingers get cold when working in subfreezing temps.....
