Bet you’ve never seen snowflakes like this before. Ken Libbrecht, a physics professor at the California Institute of Technology, snaps snowflakes as they fall using a photomicroscope to examine their wondrous patterns in his lab.

Finnish photographer Adele Enerson paints a new scene every time her baby daughter Mila falls asleep, chronicling them on her blog, Mila’s Daydreams. Now she’s collecting the photos in a book called “When My Baby Dreams.”
Definitely worth a listen. Josh has dabbled in IDM for years under his Scrap.edx format, but generally mixed in with awesomely powerful industrial noise pounders.
