Symmetry in Nature
From my Summer 2009 folder. Captured on one of our Canoe paddles on Lake Kushog. It's amazing to see the different patterns and symmetries present in Nature - but I know and understand that Nature is nothing but "Chaos", that is in a constant state of flux. We humans tend to seek out astethically pleasing patterns and relations. This is just an example.
"The essence of the earth's beauty lies in disorder, in the disorder of grasses strewn in a meadow, the blotching of green lichen on a tree trunk" - starts out Eliot Porter in his book: "Nature's Chaos". He was influenced by James Gleick's book "Chaos".
Both these book have had a considerable effect on my photography lately - let's see how it unfolds?
