The sun stands still for no one, constantly changing shadows, lighting and the general atmosphere... You have little time to meditate and contemplate your subject... you must quickly decide your course of action, and with verve and emotion, capture the essence of your subject. ~ Sidney Hermel

This is a close-up photo of ice patterns that formed at the edge of a stream that flows across Clam Harbour Beach.

In a pond in the hills, the 'Water Soldier' plant was totally submerged, yet resplendent, and all around it, on the surface was this scattering of fallen catkins ... as if by design.

Unknown plant, zoomed into an area smaller than 3". Happy Macro Monday! -- July 13, 2019

This is a close-up photo of patterns in an outcrop of bedrock at Clam Harbour Beach.

Sometimes things just catch your eye. Corn rows on Matsqui Prairie, Abbotsford, B.C.

Another from Camber Sands on the East Sussex coast England, I love how the patterns in the sand dunes are being echoed by the wooden fencing and of course the colours!

Looking out on the harvested wheat fields, Pete Seeger's song started playing in my head. Turn, turn, turn. 'To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven'. There's a time to plant and a time to reap. The stages, the patterns and the rhythms are a part of life. Hopefully they help us all to thrive and to find peace.

Crazy Tuesday theme: “PATTERNS IN NATURE”

Thanks to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated.😊

11Fountains are a group of fountains in the Frisian eleven cities that were placed in the context of Leeuwarden-Fryslân in 2018 (Cultural Capital of Europe).

"The Oort Cloud" by the French artist Jean-Michel Othoniel in Franeker refers to the astronomer Jan Hendrik Oort who was born in Franeker and came up with the hypothesis that an Oort cloud must be located in the outer regions of the solar system, far away from the planets. The cloud is symbolized by the mist rising above the fountain. The water runs down from a large bowl. This is supported by a kind of dark pearl necklaces. One pearl has the color of the moon and one has the color of the sun.

''De Oortwolk" door de franse kunstenaar Jean-Michel Othoniel in Franeker refereert aan de astronoom Jan Hendrik Oort die in Franeker geboren is en met de hypothese kwam dat zich in de buitenste regionen van het zonnestelsel een Oortwolk moest bevinden, ver verwijderd van de planeten. De wolk wordt gesymboliseerd door de nevel die bovenuit de fontein opstijgt. Het water loopt vanuit een grote schaal naar beneden. Deze wordt ondersteund door een soort donkere parelkettingen. Een parel heeft de kleur van de maan en een heeft de kleur van de zon.

Patterns of rivulets sculpted in the sand by the tide at Clam Harbour Beach.

This is a photo of sand patterns on the beach at Clam Harbour Beach.

Los Quebrantos beach, Asturias northern Spain.

This tiny refrigerator magnet has an amazing pattern of scales - plus it has the rubbery feel of a real fish skin. It is older than the hills - but I still treasure it.

Posted for Macro Mondays theme; "Unusual Patterns."

HMM everyone!

Patterns in a current flowing across Port Maitland Beach, diagonally juxtaposed with patterns in the sand created by the tide and waves.

Beautiful ancient oaks at Brocton Coppice, Cannock Chase Forest. Planted for King Henry VIII to hunt deer.... now making patterns in the sky.
