Scattered Snow

Photograph by Horst Bierau , National Geographic Your Shot

This photo was taken on a chilly morning in the Austrian Alps during our ski holiday, writes Your Shot member Horst Bierau . I was about to clear the car of the freshly fallen snow from the night before and head off to the slopes when I noticed the tiny ice crystals on the car s windowpane. The dark inside of the car cabin provided the perfect background for this motif.

Bierau s picture recently appeared in the Your Shot assignment Macro .
