The image displays four separate blue snowflakes against a uniform dark blue background. Each snowflake has unique pixelated branches: top-left features six arms with central diamond shape; top-right shows five arms with asymmetrical extensions; bottom-left has eight arms forming a star-like pattern; bottom-right presents seven arms with rounded tips.
