That doesn&#8217;t explain why it begins at the light source though. Perhaps the wandering flake just happened to be in that position when the shutter initially opened. Or maybe the snowflake came off the tree and not the light. I don&#8217;t know. The light doesn&#8217;t really look like what I&#8217;d expect a snowflake to look like should one have stopped by to have its picture taken. Let me know if you have any theories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After dark I decided to try my first ever night photography in the snow.
