Waves of permutations

iPhone 6+ photo I took late today of something ordinary and familiar, made strange with PhotoWizard (and Procreate) on an iPad Air. The pattern of shapes is much like the orginal photo that, however, had no such surreal colors. So if you ignore the colors you can probably guess what this is (or was).

 

If I had gone for shades of white maybe I could have called it "snow fences", which I remember from Wisconsin, where I grew up, which had a lot of snow in the 1950s, enough to support a few commercial ski slopes in southern Wisconsin. There was a ski lift (that might still exist) on Rib Mountain, close to Wausau in central Wisconsin when I went to college in Stevens Point, but by then the skiing businesses in southern Wisconsin had closed down, because there wasn't enough reliable snow any more. Maybe that was the beginning of warming climate in many (but not all) places around the world.
