Hedera helix, un giovane bonsai.
see on lightbox
L'edera comune (Hedera helix L., 1753) è una pianta che appartiene alla famiglia delle Araliaceae.
Nei rami non fioriferi ha foglie caratteristiche a 3 o 5 lobi di colore verde chiaro e scuro, ideale per ricoprire muri o tronchi di alberi. Nei rami fioriferi le foglie invece sono ovato romboidali. I fiori sono formati da cinque petali di colore verde riuniti in ombrelle sferiche. Caratteristica dell'edera è la prima fioritura a circa 10 anni di età. I frutti sono costituiti da bacche globose di colore nero a maturazione lungamente peduncolati e riuniti in formazioni sferiche. Gli uccelli se ne cibano abbondantemente nei periodi invernali mentre per l'uomo contengono una saponina che irrita le pareti gastriche. Cresce vigorosa e rigogliosa, sempreverde, una rampicante molto rustica e resistente al freddo.
La fioritura avviene a settembre e le bacche maturano a novembre, rimangono sulla pianta tutto l'inverno.

Thank you very much all flickeriani who visit my album and appreciate the photos, Happy Holidays ^_^
I know it's not a double-helix, but I can't help but think of the DNA molecule when I see a spiral staircase.
A study, reported in the journal Science in 2012, found that human DNA rapidly began to diversify about 5,000 years ago. That aligns closely with biblical timelines - particularly the period following the global flood described in the book of Genesis.
Die Weinbergschnecke (Helix pomatia) ist eine gehäusetragende Landschnecke und kommt in lichten Wäldern, Gebüschen und offenen Lebensräumen vor. Sie ist in der Lage, leichte bis mittelschwere Beschädigungen an ihrem Gehäuse zu reparieren. In freier Natur kann sie ein Alter von acht Jahren erreichen, bei Schnecken in menschlicher Obhut ist ein Alter von 20–30 Jahren möglich.
The Roman snail (Helix pomatia) is a shell-bearing terrestrial snail and is found in sparse forests, bushes and open habitats. She is able to repair light to moderate damage to her body. In the wild, it can reach an age of eight years, in captive snails an age of 20-30 years is possible.

The Helix Nebula (also known as NGC 7293 or Caldwell 63) is a planetary nebula (PN) located in the constellation Aquarius. Discovered by Karl Ludwig Harding, probably before 1824, this object is one of the closest of all the bright planetary nebulae to Earth. (Wikipedia). Only 655 light years away.
The Helix Bridge, officially The Helix, and previously known as the Double Helix Bridge, is a pedestrian bridge linking Marina Centre with Marina South in the Marina Bay area in Singapore. It was officially opened on 24 April 2010 at 9 pm; however, only half was opened due to ongoing construction at the Marina Bay Sands. It is located beside the Benjamin Sheares Bridge and is accompanied by a vehicular bridge, known as the Bayfront Bridge. The entire bridge was opened on 18 July 2010 to complete the entire walkway around Marina Bay.
The bridge comprises two delicate helix structures that act together as a tubular truss to resist the design loads. This approach was inspired by the form of the curved DNA structure. The helix tubes only touch each other in one position, under the bridge deck. The two spiraling members are held apart by a series of light struts and rods, as well as stiffening rings, to form a rigid structure. This arrangement is strong and ideal for the curved form. The stainless steel bridge is met by concrete abutments at either side.
Architecture in popular tourist resorts could seem dull, while at second look light, pattern or detail can be fascinating.
