Shows how ignorant I am. All I know is they do scars there. Seriously, I have no idea if it does or not (I’m guessing it never does in Maroochydore?). Anyway, these gorgeous snowflake cuttings were done by Wayde Dunn at Puncture Body Piercing in Maroochydore, Qld, Australia.

I don’t usually like scarification but these are really pretty, I think the appeal has something to do with the straight lines and the subject matter, I *heart* snowflakes.
I live in Perth Western Australia and it hasn’t snowed here in my life. I first saw snow in Canada :o). The hottest recorded temp in Australia was 57.3 C.
Trivia: Longest hot spell (world): Marble Bar, W. Australia, 100 °F (38 °C) (or above) for 162 consecutive days, Oct. 30, 1923 to Apr. 7, 1924. HOT HOT HOT

Okay, I have to admit that I was sent this picture, and not told what exactly it was before I clicked it. I have absolutely no experience in Body Modification whatsoever… in fact, I have had no exposure to most of what I’ve seen while browsing this site (although my curiosity really allowed me to learn alot, heh). I have no tatoos, and the most I have are two ear piercings… so I’ve never even encountered anything like this…
But I honestly have to say that this is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen in terms of “body art.” I mean, I personally don’t know if I could do this on my own body (at least not something that deep or extensive), but the precision is amazing, and the photographic work captures the striking contrast between the fresh scars and the white of the skin. Also, the contrast between the symbolism of the delicate snowflakes on what, essentially is, freshly carved skin, makes the image even bolder to me, but at the same time all the more visually impressive.

I live in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, and I’ve only seen snow once in my life when my parents took me down to victoria. I saw the video of it – I must have been like 3 years old or something. Anyway, I slipped and fell over and started crying so needless to say my snow trip wasn’t too thrilling.
My sister lives in Tasmania (The most southern of Australian states for those who don’t know) and she’s seen and played about in snow. It’s really only New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania that would see snow.
Queensland is as hot as fuck.

I dont think it ever gets to 60C, that’s exaggerating a bit but it does snow here but only in some areas. It’s not much snow either, our ski-resorts are mostly articfical =]

beautiful, although it bothers me that two are identical – couldn’t there be slight changes?

Yes, it does snow in australia. Australia has large snow industries in the snowy mountain located in southern New South Wales and northern victoria. Tasmania has snow in every month of the year. Blizzards are even a problem on Mount Wellington in Tasmania. But tasmania is the only state that has received snow on beaches. Every state in australia has received snow.
