Those who are into photography know that in order to take better, more beautiful, sharper and more eye-catching photos, the money spent on equipment is often staggering. However, the snowflakes captured by New York photographer Douglas Levere using homemade macro photography equipment are surprisingly effective.
Levere took these photos of snowflakes near his home in Buffalo for the past three years. He used a brush to place the snowflakes on a microscope slide and captured them with his camera before the snowflakes melted. In order to shoot in macro situations without losing focus on every detail, Levere used the digital photography technique of stacking focus to first take multiple photos with different focal lengths, and then overlay them into one photo, thereby enhancing the focus of the photo. Sharpness and texture. In front of the camera, the crystal clear snowflakes are like crystals, pure and transparent. Each different-shaped crystal is like a design drawn by God, transformed into winter-limited jewelry through the form of snow, which is better than any famous brand jewelry nowadays. All are still precious.
