A Giant Snowflake

Have you ever tried to freeze water? I did and the water became ice. So I would have thought that when rain freezes it turn into tiny pieces of ice, but according to these pictures the snow has patterns! We rarely get snow in London, so I was really amazed to see this! And it left me wondering what makes water to freeze in this way? Maybe in science lessons we will learn this. These pictures were taken by a photographer called Alexey Kljatov.

Shard building

Shard is the tallest building in London, it has 95 floors. I have never been inside it, only saw it from outside. It looks very futuristic, especially in comparison to old buildings around it, but I am not sure I like because it looks unfinished on the top. Shard means a piece of broken glass with sharp edges. It will be interesting to know how the architect came up with this idea. And why? Here is a picture I took.
