I was amazed at the pattern of the Great Horned Owl wings!

Seen at the Los Angeles County Arboretum. Peacocks are amazing.

Inspired by this week's SSC subject , patterns , someone indoors produced this Sanntangle for me to photograph .

What is a Sanntangle ??

" There are times when life gets too much and one just needs to stop for a moment and realign , a sort of living the moment kind of thing .

Tangling ( that is creating simple patterns to form an interesting abstract design ) can do just that .

It relaxes and helps to restore a positive mindset ensuring that one can be free to be more creative and then to continue with everyday life .

That said , the time spent can be productive resulting in something to look back on and admire the beautiful result and even be used for a card or framed to see whenever one wishes "

( adapted text from the Sandra Rushton starter booklet on Senntangling ) .

For my chosen shot for the challenge , you will have to wait until Saturday , it was a bit of a tussle trying to choose which shot to use for the challenge .

A forest near the Suzuriishi Pass. After seeing the projection mapping, I was intrigued by the pattern of this moss.

硯石という峠のあたりの森。プロジェクションマッピングを見た後で、この苔の模様はなんか気になる。

Thank you for taking the time to view my photo,

maybe for your faves and comments, I appreciate that very much!

Sea foam patterns at Clam Harbour Beach.

This was in a neighbor's front yard. I don't know what kind of plant this is, but it has amazing patterns! Black and white really brought them out. I added a blue filter in Aperture (yes, there really is a use for that ;) which also emphasized the patterns.

Very exciting for me since I had never written a pattern of any kind before. This particular one is entitled "Fairytale Mushroom Cottage" ~

this was the 6th of 7 pincushions to debut in Quilt Fabric Delights - Pincushion of the Month Club in Australia! Thanks Sarah for letting me be a part of this fun adventure!
