Extreme close-up of a small hailstone in the split second after it hits a hard surface. The hailstone is captured mid-break, with sharp ice fragments scattering in all directions. Some pieces are already airborne, trailing behind with very fine, clear motion blur that conveys a sense of speed. The impact point on the surface is slightly dented, adding to the feeling of force. The texture of the ice is highly detailed, showing splintered edges and tiny cracks, contrasting against the dark, wet surface below.
