When I saw the title geometric shapes, there was only one place I had to photograph. The discs on Selfridges Birmingham department store have been replaced and the different geometric patterns look good in the sunlight. Each camera position reveals a new arrangement of the discs.

going to school again , I have to do some assignements , but I can't resist to add something extra, new i was going to the Museum M in leuven to take pictures of geometric shapes, but when I got there I saw the white ceiling and the blue sky and saw my Icelandic arctic tern in it trying to attack me
this image captures the moment when color, form, and light merge, as if the red ceramic vases have just dipped into a bath of liquid hues. the gloss on their surfaces reflects the light in a soft, harmonious dance, while the blurred backgrounds emphasize depth and abstraction. it's a play between reality and illusion, where the eye doesn't settle on solid objects but instead explores colors and shapes that flow and reflect, almost like a dream. the rounded forms and warm tones create a quiet power, making the image both touching and abstract at once.

I wanted to do something a bit different for this week's Crazy Tuesday challenge: Geometry. While looking in the pantry I realized that groceries come in a plethora of geometric shapes, so here are some for your amusement.
Happy Crazy Tuesday!
This Art Installation comprises of sixteen steel columns each standing six metres high. All the structures are painted with white curved and straight lines,Which when aligned they complete geometric patterns when viewed from specific angles, They are temporary situated in Hull Trinity Square, See also previous Photo,
This is an image of the erosion effects you find in karst limestone pavements, affectionately known as clints and grykes…
Or is it? Whenever I look at this image, it fools me into thinking that is what it is. But it’s Sliders Sunday so I need to be wary. And so, I suggest, do you. Would I ever mislead you? Never! … much.
This is, in fact, an intentional camera movement picture I took on Boxing Day last year. It’s the silhouette of a leafless tree taken on a walk in a country lane near where I live. I’ll post a link to the in-camera original in the first comment so you can see what I mean.
I duplicated the near-monochrome image, which already reminded me of cracks in a rock, flipped one of the copies and then blended them with Darken blend mode to preserve the silhouette. That gave it a pleasing symmetry which always appeals to me. The rest was just tweaking, with a Lighting filter layer to add texture (the spotlight is set in the upper right) and a light vignette.
Thanks for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Sliders Sunday :)

A Polygon derives from the greek word meaning many sides and is considered to be an unbounded sequence, or circuit of alternating segments (sides) and angles (corners).
The modern mathematical understanding of a Polygon is to describe this structural sequence in terms of an 'abstract' polygon which is a partially-ordered set (a poset) of elements.
The interior body of the Polygon is an entirely other element; and for complicated technical reasons so is the null polytope or nullitope - but that is for another future series.

Panels that will allow light to shine out of my favorite sculpture in town “Space Whale”. If you care to see a photo of the entire sculpture, I made a post 2 years ago, or you could look in my camera roll on December 4, 2019. This sculpture is interesting as a whole or as smaller parts of the whole.

The Woburn Public Library (Winn Memorial Library) is first of several designed by H.H. Richardson, build in the late 1800s, from similar plans. Originally, the book stacks occupied two floors; however, modern building codes allow library patrons to access the first floor.
The others are in Easton, Malden and Quincy Massachusetts. I'm going to try to visit them by year end.

Taken during my Macro Mondays [27-Dec-2021] double 'Redux' theme, insane mega-photo-session.
This was "geometric shapes" and "behind glass". I could have added "circles" too, but the distortion form the glass took care of that.

The sun rises over San Francisco Bay, painting the sky in gradients of orange, pink, and deepening blue while the iconic shipyard cranes of Pier 70 stand in silhouette. This is the view that greeted generations of maritime workers arriving for early shifts—the industrial skyline that built America's Pacific naval power now transformed into one of the city's most evocative historic landmarks. Those gantry cranes marching across the horizon are among the most recognizable structures at Pier 70. Their skeletal steel frameworks, designed for lifting massive ship components and machinery, create a rhythmic pattern against the colorful dawn sky. During World War II, cranes like these operated around the clock, hoisting steel plates, engines, and armaments onto vessels destined for the Pacific theater. The distinctive A-frame shape allowed them to straddle railway tracks that once crisscrossed the shipyard, moving materials from fabrication shops to drydocks with industrial efficiency. The water catches and reflects the warm sunrise colors, creating a mirror image that doubles the visual impact. San Francisco Bay has always been central to the city's identity and economy—first as a Gold Rush gateway, then as a maritime and naval powerhouse, and now as a contested space where public access, environmental restoration, and development pressures collide. This particular stretch of waterfront, once closed to civilians for security and operational reasons, has gradually opened to public use as the shipyard's industrial functions wound down. Sailboat masts visible on the left frame the scene, reminding us how this working waterfront has transitioned. Where cargo ships and naval vessels once dominated, recreational sailors now navigate these waters. It's a shift repeated across San Francisco's waterfront—from commercial and industrial uses toward residential, recreational, and mixed-use development. The tension between honoring maritime heritage and accommodating contemporary urban needs defines much of the conversation around places like Pier 70. The composition itself emphasizes the scale and drama of industrial infrastructure. Silhouetting the cranes against the saturated sky transforms functional machinery into sculpture, their geometric forms creating visual interest through repetition and variation. The foreground remains in deep shadow, focusing attention on that brilliant horizon where industrial history meets natural beauty. This is the kind of view that makes San Francisco special—a city where working landscapes and stunning natural settings coexist, where you can witness both human ambition and environmental grandeur in a single frame. For decades, these cranes represented economic vitality and American industrial might. Now they stand as monuments to a bygone era, preserved not for their utility but for their historical and aesthetic value. Their presence reminds us that San Francisco wasn't always a tech hub—it was a city built by people who worked with their hands, who built ships and loaded cargo, who operated cranes and welded steel. As the city transforms, these structures anchor us to that history.
