A 4:30am alarm with a quick stop at the Dunkin drive-thru got me to the New Jersey Festival of Ballooning in time to experience what it takes to unfurl, inflate and fly a hot air balloon. It's been years since I've done this and it was a beautiful morning to be amongst all the dedication and skill these crews have.
On another note, felt like it was time to update my profile pic. As much as I liked the old one, it looked more like a high school yearbook pic at this point. Lol!

Between physics and philosophy, between chaos and order, between reality and fantasy, between virtue and excess the human and the divine is canceled . opposites we find and often respond with other contradictions"
-----------------------------------
"Entre la física y la filosofía, entre el caos y el orden, entre la realidad y la fantasía, entre la virtud y el exceso se anula lo humano y lo divino. Opuestos que encontramos y muchas veces se responden con otras contradicciones."
Sixty Degrees. That’s the angle for all of these edges, give or take based on the fact that the snowflake is photographed at an angle. Physics at work, yet many people consider snowflakes as a creation of God. It’s amazing really, that the same object can be described by some as evidence of a Creator, while others use the exact same object to prove that the natural laws of physics make our world what it is.
Very few things can take equal sides like a snowflake. I have a side, but I don’t need to express it to express my fascination with our interpretation of the world around us. The real magic here is that we, as human beings, see this snowflake as beautiful. I don’t think many people would argue against that. That begs the question however: what is beauty?
Beauty doesn’t exist on its own. A massive organized collection of water molecules? It is just a thing, a (mostly) inanimate object when we see it. How do we perceive this as beautiful? It’s not the object that contains this value, it’s our perception of it. One could say it’s all in our heads, and I think they’d be right. Something is only beautiful because we say so, collectively or individually it doesn’t matter. So then, what is beauty?
It’s a deep question, and one that every person might have a different answer to. My answer reflects on the larger world around us. We see geometry as standing out from chaotic nature. We admire patterns. We adore symmetry. The most symmetrical face with chiseled lines might be perceives by many as being beautiful, but so too will a wrinkled old smile with the history of the world written on it. Beauty comes in many forms, based on how deep we look.
When I dive into the details of a snowflake, describing all of its features and how they came to be, I hope I add to the beauty. In the opening words of the documentary series Forces of Nature, narrated by Dr. Brian Cox, he says “the world is beautiful to look at, but it’s even more beautiful to understand”. Understanding the depth of beauty only makes these tiny sky crystals even more beautiful, and these posts are often aimed solely at this.
See the slightly brighter center? There is a hexagonal twin plate on the reverse side of the snowflake. The central “dot” shows that this was from a column that transitioned to plate-type growth, and the forward-facing plate gained dominance to grow branches. It was slow-growing which provides a more geometric profile, with extra complexities in the lower left – look closely and you’ll see signs of another plate running in parallel in certain areas.
But all of the science, all of the logic, have a hard time explaining beauty. Whether or not there was a master plan from God to put this snowflake in front of me or if it was just the natural chaotic physics of the universe, doesn’t really matter when we internalize our appreciation of the results. No matter what you think, this snowflake is beautiful.
That is the beauty of humanity.
P.S. if you want to comment on this image, please do so in a way that does not take sides on religion or science. We ALL have our opinions, let’s just keep this one human, okay?
Pure symmetry is often an illusion – our perception of complex objects tends to “even out” the differences, unless they are overtly obvious, like the top branch of this snowflake. But why is that one different from the rest?
There’s a “scar” on this snowflake, a diagonal line right before the changes in symmetry occur. In most cases, this happens when something gets stuck on the surface of the snowflake during formation – another crystal or fragment of a snowflake is most likely, affecting the way the rest of the branch formed. There’s nothing that links the growth of the six branches of a snowflake – there’s no architect’s drawings to follow; there is, however, near-identical growing environments. Change the variables even slightly, and you can see the change in the pattern.
This particular snowflake has two additional fun features: a clue into the mysteries of “spoke” formations, and inward crystal growth. The inward growth is easy to see, with the lines radiating from/to the center. These are on the reverse side of the crystal, backfilling in the snowflake towards the center, increasing the thickness in waves.
Those spokes – the thicker lines pointing to each branch tip – carry with them some very interesting details. It’s easiest to see at the bottom and bottom-right branches, and here’s a close-up of what I’m talking about: donkom.ca/bts/DKP_8192-BTS.jpg . It appears as if this heightened feature might actually begin forming as two separate ridges, which then get filled in with molecular accumulation between them. This process is not always solid, allowing for bubbles to occasionally form as it fills in. On these two lower branches, it’s easy to see the pockets of air forming on the edges of this growth.
I don’t like this. This doesn’t follow the standard model of how snowflakes grow. I do not have the knowledge to explain why two separate ridges form and then fill in the gap, all the while happening internally compared to the outer footprint. These two separate ridges, however, would explain the often-seen parallel bubble lines which this crystal also features; they must be related. I don’t like it because I can’t explain it. There’s an answer, obviously, but it escapes me. Maybe I should just embrace the fact that no matter how much we understand about one of the basic elements of life – water – some things are still a mystery.

John Muir: "When I reached the [Yosemite] valley, all the rocks seemed talkative, and more lovable than ever. They are dear friends, and have warm blood gushing through their granite flesh; and I love them with a love intensified by long and close companionship. … I … bathed in the bright river, sauntered over the meadows, conversed with the domes, and played with the pines."
"Between every two pine trees there is a door leading to a new way of life."--John Muir
"I would advise sitting from morning till night under some willow bush on the river bank where there is a wide view. This will be "doing the valley" far more effectively than riding along trails in constant motion from point to point. The entire valley is made up of "points of interest." --John Muir on Yosemite!
Follow me on instagram for more!
Had a great time waking up at 5 AM every day to shoot tunnel view and then driving around down in the valley to Half Dome, Bridalviel Falls, Cook's Meadow and the glorious Cook's Meadow elm tree, Sentinel Bridge, Valley View, Swinging Bridge, and more! Yosemite winters are made for black and whites, and Ansel Adam's ghost haunts the brilliant landscape scenery!
The most epic "Ansel Adams" view is tunnel view where one can see El Capitan, Bridalviel Falls, and Half Dome over magnificent trees, snow, rising fogs, and breaking mists. Enjoy!
Been busy traveling and shooting landscapes and working on my books The Golden Hero's Odyssey about the golden rectangle and divine proportion I use in a lot of my compositions! Also working on my physics book on Dynamic Dimensions Theory! The equation dx4/dt=ic is on a lot of the 45surf swimsuit and shirts and all! :)
