This is a very different matter from the mild geometry of brick and shadow or the interminable search for "texture." In his best photographs, landscape and season, earth and light, are revealed in a grand mutuality - a moment so precisely visualized in tone and composition as to be mathematical, and yet so revelatory of earthly beauty as to be something else entirely :-)

The Mathematical Bridge, also known as Newton's bridge, Queen's College Cambridge UK. It looks like an arch but is made of straight timbers.

The bridge was designed by William Etheridge, and built by James Essex in 1749. It has been rebuilt on two occasions, in 1866 and in 1905, but has kept the same overall design. Although it appears to be an arch, it is composed entirely of straight timbers[4] built to an unusually sophisticated engineering design, hence the name.
The Penrose Paving is constructed from just two different diamond-shaped granite tiles, each adorned identically with stainless steel circular arcs. There are various ways of covering the infinite plane with them, matching the arcs. But every such pattern is non-repetitive and contains infinitely many exact copies of what you see before you.

This weird looking place is the Winton Gallery on Mathematics at the Science Museum in London. The Winton Gallery is a new permanent exhibition which tells the story of how mathematics has shaped the world. Designed by the world-renowned Zaha Hadid Architects, this outstanding new gallery spans 400 years and brings mathematical history to life through the design and architecture of its displays. The strange shapes depict the imagined wind flow round a Handley Page aircraft from 1929 the tail of which can just be seen in the centre of the image. The reflection was obtained from a display case with the camera resting on it. Photography is allowed in the Museum though as usual with no Tripods and no Flash
The picture was taken handheld though resting on the display with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20 mm lens at 10mm. 3 raw images 2EV spacing processed with Photomatix Natural for a natural look. More detail with Topaz Clarity. There was really not a lot of processing and the colours were pretty much as seen in this impressive gallery.

"Mathematical biologists love sunflowers. The giant flowers are one of the most obvious—as well as the prettiest—demonstrations of a hidden mathematical rule shaping the patterns of life: the Fibonacci sequence, a set in which each number is the sum of the previous two (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, ...), found in everything from pineapples to pine cones. In this case, the telltale sign is the number of different seed spirals on the sunflower's face." From Science Magazine, link: www.sciencemag.org/news/2016/05/sunflowers-show-complex-f...
Anish Kapoor's monumental Tall Tree and the Eye (2009), recently installed outside the museum, consists of 73 reflective spheres anchored around three axes. This illusionistic work continues the artist's examination of complex mathematical and structural principles embodied in sculptural form. The mirrored surfaces of the orbs reflect and refract one another, simultaneously creating and dissolving form and space. Images of the surrounding city, including the Nervión river, Buren's sculptural intervention on La Salve Bridge (Arcos rojos/Arku gorriak, 2007), and the museum itself, are cast into dynamic suspension. Kapoor reminds us of the instability and ephemerality of our vision-and by extension of our world.

The Mathematical Bridge is the popular name of a wooden bridge across the River Cam, between two parts of Queens' College, Cambridge. Its official name is simply the Wooden Bridge.
The bridge was designed by William Etheridge, and built by James Essex in 1749. It has been rebuilt on two occasions, in 1866 and in 1905, but has kept the same overall design.
The original "mathematical bridge" was another bridge of the same design, also designed by James Essex, crossing the Cam between Trinity and Trinity Hall, where Garret Hostel bridge now stands.

A oft shot image of the Mathematical Bridge in Cambridge. Nothing original here, but why not, like thousands of other photographers!
The quintessential English summer afternoon punting on the Cam…
All you need, really, is some tea served in a porcelain cup accompanying a jam-filled scone to complete the picture.
The punts (flat-bottomed boats that are poled along by intrepid punters) only really work in slow-moving water that’s no deeper than the pole. This is the Cam river in Cambridge which is deep and slow here as it ambles across a plain only a few feet above sea level.
On a fine afternoon, it’s fun to watch the stories unfold as the boats, often hired by hapless tourists, wander in every direction but the one intended. Some of the punts are professionally propelled tours for tourists. The rest are crewed by amateurs or students. Chaos ensues.
Almost as funny, though, are the embroidered stories the tour guides regale to their bemused passengers who are often foreigners on day trips from London. I remember hearing one anecdote, delivered totally deadpan, recounting tourist fatalities at the beaks of the local bellicose swans… (It is, of course, the piranhas that the tourists need to be wary of - that's why the punters use metal poles, so that they are never stranded up a creek without a pole :) ).
This is an image taken last year (though processed today for Smile on Saturday) of the Mathematical Bridge which joins two parts of Queen’s College. It was originally built in 1749 and is of a very elegant, technical, engineering design. The bridge is made from solely straight timbers that are arranged so that, in use, no element has lateral forces applied to it. The bridge has its own Wikipedia entry.
I love the way there are stories in this picture - the oblivious tour boat in front with the guide in full orator mode, the punt hirer who appears to be trying to punt along the wall on the right to the alarm of his passengers, and the canoeist desperately trying to plot a safe course through the chaos… and the rest of passengers just letting the world drift idly by…
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Smile on Saturday :)
Mathematical Bridge is the popular name of a wooden footbridge over the River Cam in Cambridge, England. It connects two parts of Queens' College.
A popular fable is that the bridge was designed and built by Sir Isaac Newton without the use of nuts or bolts. Various stories relate how at some point in the past either students or fellows of the University attempted to take the bridge apart and put it back together, but were unable to work out how to hold the structure together, and were obliged to resort to adding nuts and bolts. In reality, bolts or the equivalent are an inherent part of the design. When it was first built, iron spikes were driven into the joints from the outer side, where they could not be seen from the inside of the parapets, explaining why bolts were thought to be an addition to the original. Newton cannot have been directly involved since he died in 1727, twenty-two years before the bridge was constructed.[Wikipedia]
Sited next to Queens College, this wooden bridge over the River Cam was originally built in 1749, and was rebuilt in 1905 to the same design. It is an example of a voussoir arch bridge.

At Queens' College, Cambridge.
According to Wikipedia:
"Popular fable is that the bridge was designed and built by Sir Isaac Newton without the use of nuts or bolts, and at some point in the past students or fellows attempted to take the bridge apart and put it back together" (and had to use bolts).
However, "this story is false: the bridge was built of oak in 1749 by James Essex the Younger (1722–1784) to the design of the master carpenter William Etheridge (1709–1776), 22 years after Newton died."
The riverside building to the right dates to around 1460.
Read all about the fascinating design/history of this bridge, first built in 1749...here:

The riverside building on the right centre dates to around 1460, and is the oldest building in Cambridge by the River Cam.
Love & Mathematics
Some speak of a spark
Which ignites in the dark
When two people solve
The equation of love
But as the lights went on
Cover of darkness gone
I saw your true face
Reflected in my gaze
Fuzzy logic was applied
Our body language lied
Do I mind that nose?
Do you hate my clothes?
The laws of attraction
Do not care for perfection
As I entered your space
I thanked god the beer is so cheap in this place
