Pretty happy with how this turned out: my daughter and nephews enjoying the sunshine on our southern hemisphere Christmas Day. This is my first use of the video capability of the Nikon D300s, paired with a 50mm f/1.4 prime. With the aperture wide open the shutter speed was very fast, hence the staccato effect where individual water drops are visible rather than a stream from the hose. Soundtrack is by Belle & Sebastian.
idsgn’s Skylar Challand documents the history of the snowflake icon, in particular the ubiquitous six-sided version above, as seen in Wingdings and Zapf Dingbats (red and blue respectively).
