COOL BEANS. Heh - I learned how to preserve one forever if you want the technique. Saw it on Martha Stewart ROFL - seriously, a guy who has taken unbelievable photos told how to do it!!! Made sense and he showed examples.
Not a beautiful photo (hope you know what I mean with all that messy felt) but a wonderful shot of the flake - so clear. Was this shot in freezing conditions or in a freezer?
