Compositionally Challenged, Week 24 - Marvelous Mundane
365 day 166
Years ago, I read in a gardening magazine the advice to avoid kinks and snarls: wind garden hoses into a figure-8 rather than coiling them. It was good advice. I do get an occasional kink and never a snarl. A sideways figure-8 is also the symbol for infinity, and when I am winding 85 feet of hose, it does feel like infinity.

Inside an electric tower - looking up. I want to improve this shot, but it still was an "Ahhh - Got it" shot that I've been thinking about for awhile.
This is for the man-made repetitions and patterns series. Thanks, Jeff for great advice on the post processing. I hope I did it justice.
I began this original pattern, this summer. Tonight I went to work on it with Derwent Soft Colored Pencils. I like using these c.p. as they are soft, blendible, no oder and the colors are snapped up.

While in Bethlehem, PA for a good friends wedding, we spent some time on Main St.
I would not have guessed that I would be photographing bright green palm leaves in early December in Eastern PA when I woke up that morning.
Lesson: Always have your camera handy!
Each "bone" is made of 16 squares:
8 white (background)
6 patterned
2 half white/half pattern sewn together diagonally
Each square is 2" finished, so if you're using a 1/4" seam allowance you'll cut out 2-1/2" squares. Remember to add seam allowance to the long side of your triangles, too.

This was a fun exercise. I drew the middle tangle a few weeks ago. Last night, I took the various elements of the tangle and stacked them. After that I "separated" them.
I find the "pedestrian" symbol used on North American roadsigns somehow fascinating. There's something endearing about the intrepid way s/he seems to be stepping into the road. (To be fair, roads aren't always very pedestrian friendly that side of the pond!) Not to mention that s/he is found in some unlikely places.
Here, our intrepid explorer steps onto the major road on the bridge over Granville Island in Vancouver. The cables are for electric trolley buses, and I just love the pattern they make against the clear blue sky.
The sky was only this blue on the last day of my time in Canada.
