That was something...A Strange Coincidence Today

So something fell out of the sky while I was observing falling snow; That was something. First of all, Today I tried out super macro photos of ice crystals, as this was the first significant snowfall of the season. I had a dark hat put on a surface so that the sky crystals (snow) would fall and I could magnify them. To get a really good photo, you better have a shit ton of light for the camera to pick up. I think that with a smartphone the results would be of a little bit less detail, at least with smartphones of the modern era as they only come up to about 16 megapixels, although I'm thinking that with a smartphone, the setup and/or process of photographing crystals up close would probably be easier as compared to a traditional camera. That's why it was sad when I lost my magnifier for my smartphone; that actually worked as well as a microscope! However, I'll set that thought aside for a moment because even though I didn't get to take an interesting macro/micro photo today, something truly surprising occurred. Even though there were at least a few thousand, if not several thousand, ice crystals that fell onto the hat, they almost all seemed to be of the "dry kind" (powdery type) of snow, which is rather small and doesn't make for interesting images unless perhaps you magnify them about a hundred times or so, but at that magnification you'd run into problems trying to get a photo of good quality. But what caught my attention was something that fell on the hat that didn't seem to belong with all of the other snowflakes; it was a dendritic snow crystal! Just one, and thousands of others were not dendritic. What a strange coincidence?
