Very pleased with this snowflake macro. This was the last snowfall of the year and such was my luck I had time to photograph them. Beautiful flakes as such came down as the snowfall was ending. With a fresh viewpoint I see now I could've edited it even better but still ok with this :)
I had a blue toned version to post
but decided on going with this originally rainbow colored version. For those interested here is a 100% crop , untouched .
PP involved various contrast adjustments, levels, saturation, cloning out multiple specks and dust spots and patching up a bit of the top left corner which had a little green hue showing, to blue.

Thanks for your comments and faves everyone :)
This was done with my usual 100mm macro lens, no extra attachments. Just the one lens and camera body. Using manual focus.

Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning. It's day two now and I'm running late, sorry.
It could be anything, but the effect is synthetic so it's a fine graphic work to my eye, but not more. 6
