Circles and triangles

Macro Mondays theme : Geometry Shapes

 

Circles and triangles are two of the first geometry shapes we learn. In a two-dimensional geometry, a triangle is actually a polygon with 3 sides while a rectangle (or square) is also a polygon but with 4 sides.

 

Of course, the objects in my picture are three-dimensional. I used a mini-Springer (a miniature Slinky) to represent circles and cylinders while the triangular shape is actually a 4-sided triangular dice. I used a translucent paper to create different color shades in the background and the way the light was reflected a green triangle appeared in the frame. This was not planned but it did fit the theme! 😉

 

As a reference, the diameter of the mini-Slinky is 1 3/8”.
