- "Despite these poetic descriptions, Bentley brought a highly objective eye to his work"
Being poetic is not being objective, this statement is debatable with almost equal odds to both sides. I guess we must remove that statement Jeroje 05:13, 22 January 2007 (UTC)jeroje

Erste Fotografie
editDie ersten Schneeflocken wurden nachweislich vom dem aus Schleswig-Holstein stammenden Dr. Johann Heinrich Flögel (1834-1918) in Jahren 1879 und 1881 fotografiert. Siehe hier:[1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.246.8.11 (talk) 11:00, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
In English: The first snowflakes were demonstrably photographed by a native of Schleswig-Holstein Dr. Johann Heinrich Flögel (1834-1918) in 1879 and in 1881.

- Perhaps. Note that the article says Bentley was "one of the first" - not necessarily the very first. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 12:59, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
"Blackboard"
editI believe the current link to a "Chalkboard" entry is incorrect. From having recently visited the museum and reading the provided history, any "black board" that he was using was likely painted wood for catching snowflakes without handling them directly. Wood was suited because it has low thermal conductivity from the surface it is resting on. 57.140.28.11 (talk) 13:42, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
