Let It Snow! WR News talks to an award-winning snowflake expert.

Most people stay indoors during a snowstorm, but Kenneth Libbrecht is not most people. When flurries start drifting down from the sky, the scientist heads out into the cold. He takes his camera with him.

Outside, Libbrecht waits for snowflakes that are just right. Finally, he spots the glittery ice crystals he’s been waiting for. As the snowflakes fall, Libbrecht catches them. Then he points his camera and shoots.

Kenneth Libbrecht Libbrecht caught these cool crystals on camera.

The scientist’s shiny snapshots recently earned him an award. The award is given to top science photographers around the world.

Libbrecht takes pictures of snowflakes to learn more about their shapes. The crystals form when water vapor, or steam, in a cloud freezes. Every snowflake grows into a hexagon. That is a six-sided shape. However, no two snowflakes look the same. Experts are not sure why.

To solve the mystery, Libbrecht has traveled to snowy places around the world. He has taken pictures of snowflakes in Canada, Alaska, and Vermont. He takes his research back to his science lab. That is in California.
