Macro Snowflake Crystal on Navy Wool Lichen Bark

Six delicate, translucent arms of a snowflake crystal spread across a deep navy wool surface. The wool fibers show a coarse, napped texture that contrasts with the smooth, glassy edges of the ice. Behind the fabric, lichen-covered bark provides a rough, gray-green backdrop, its patches of pale green and charcoal standing out against the soft textile. Bright midmorning light bounces off pale walls, casting a soft, even glow that highlights the intricate hexagonal symmetry without harsh shadows. The scene remains still, with the crystal resting firmly on the fabric weave. A tiny fragment of ice dust rests on the tip of the nearest crystal arm.
