Yes, these photos of snowflakes were taken with regular camera

It’s a point-and-shoot job with a little twist.

YOU DON’T NEED the most expensive photography equipment to take mesmerising photos.

Photographer Alexey Kljatov took an old lens from a Russian Zenit camera, flipped it around backwards, and attached it to a run-of-the-mill point-and-shoot camera.

Then he took macro shots of snowflakes, and the images are absolutely enchanting! Kljatov allowed us to share some of them here.
