That link mentioned Wilson A. Bentley. I remember somewhere getting ahold of a children's book about him and read it to my class when we were discussion weather in science. I remember the back of the book had panel after panel of a bunch of his photographs. I think I remember something about him leaving the plates out in the cold outside so they wouldn't immediately melt the snowflakes when he tried to photograph them. It's been a few years since I read that. I should check and see if they have it at our library. I know my daughter would love it. Thanks for reminding me.

The book is called "Snowflake Bentley" by Jacqueline Briggs Martin. Caldecott Award 1999.
