Snow Body Prints

Lean Into Parked Cars for These DIY 3D Self-Portraits

These images of people’s faces and antics are unbelievably incredible. While they may at first appear to be intricately carved images made of freshly fallen snow, these images were produced simply by the “artists” pushing their faces into fresh powder as it settled on the hoods of cars. 

What possesses people to think of this in the first place is another story. The impressions are concave in the snow, but in a certain light, the snow imprints take on a 3D effect. Don’t even try to get your head around why this happens. Just appreciate another magical aspect of nature and all its mysteries--and don’t try this at your local mall parking lot.
