Snowflakes 101 – A Beginner’s Guides to Capturing Snowflakes

This Tech Talk was presented on January 21, 2021 by Kersti Meema. The following is a summary of what was presented and is intended to get you started on photographing snowflakes. 

What you need:

• Camera with macro lens (or lens with macro capability)
• Remote trigger
• Tripod
• Glass plate (the glass from an old picture frame works well – cover edges in duct tape)
• Falling snow! Temperatures of -8 ^oC to -5^oC work well.
• Extension tubes (optional)
• Sharpening software – I used Topaz Sharpening AI (optional)
