Taken for this week's Macro Mondays theme: Patterns in Nature.
I know these leaf shots are kind of cliche here on Flickr but I wanted to do this one for today because leaves are so full of detail and patterns which look like a maze going this way and that way. Around here we have plenty of leaves so it wasn't hard to find one to use.
Thank you for your visits, comments and faves! HMM to all!

Seashells always amaze me. How can so many shells have the same design, patterning, colour and size! Maybe they are as diverse among the seashell world as we are - but to foreign eyes they all look the same ;o)
There's a shot of the seashell in the first comment field, along with the the size-guide I use for MM.
HMM to everyone, and have a great week ;o)

On tour of the Lower Antelope Canyon. In the Navajo Nation Reservation area in LeChee, Arizona, United States.
I decided to try to split my 100x project (patterns in nature) equally between the 4 seasons. These are my 25 photos for Winter, now I'm moving on to springtime folks! I guess this means I'll be finishing at the end of Autumn.
First 20 of my 100X project, Patterns in Nature.
I know the calendar still says winter, but I'm moving on to springtime folks!
The wonderful contrast of frozen river ice over a bed of colourful rocks on the River Etive, Glencoe, Scotland.
This is a Salsify seed. It is looks like a large dandelion seed and grows wild. I brought it home, stood it in a vase, added a bit of light to highlight the pattern. This seed at the widest measures 1.5 inches in diameter. I did make an adjustment to contrast in post production.
Lichen reproductive organs - apothecia- are round and occur in great profusion on the body of this lovely yellow lichen. While not a regular pattern per se the profusion of roundness is the pattern of nature seen in many lichens. This one was on a fallen branch at Cardinia Reservoir on our extremely wet weekend. Possibly a Xanthoria species. Sometimes these fruiting bodies are called fairy cups.
Lichens, or lichenised fungi, are organisms made up of a fungus and one or more algae or a cyanobacterium in a symbiotic relationship. Australia's has lots of algae and I once worked, many years ago, with one of Australia's well known lichenologists!
Each little star is only a couple of millimeters across.

CHAMAEROPS HUMILIS.
La pianta della Palma Nana o più comunemente Cefaglione è un'entità estremamente rara allo stato spontaneo, dall'enorme valore naturalistico: rappresenta l'unica specie di palma che cresce spontanea sulle coste continentali dell'Europa, testimone vivente di una flora di tipo tropicale, ora completamente scomparsa, che all'inizio dell'era Terziaria (circa 65 milioni di anni fa) era diffusa in tutta l'Europa meridionale grazie a condizioni climatiche completamente differenti dalle attuali.
E' una pianta legnosa a tronco poco elevato, 0.5 - 2 metri, coperto dalle guaine fogliari, portamento bulbiforme o più comunemente contorto (negli esemplari coltivati invece è eretto e può arrivare anche a 10 m d'altezza). Foglie grandi, sempreverdi, coriacee, lamina palmata 40-70 cm, ricorda un ventaglio, picciuolo legnoso lungo 20-40 cm, spinoso al margine.

"All around us, we see a great diversity of living things, from the microscopic to the gigantic, from the simple to the complex, from bright colors to dull ones. One of the most intriguing things we see in nature is patterns. We tend to think of patterns as sequences or designs that are orderly and that repeat. But we can also think of patterns as anything that is not random.
For example, we recognize the spots on a giraffe as a pattern, but they're not regular, nor are any of the spots the same size or shape. However, other patterns are orderly as is seen in the symmetry of a sea star or a snowflake."

Bangalore is called the Garden City of India. This is because Hyder Ali, the ruler of Mysore, liked the cool climate of Bangalore and so planned a garden that was named as Lalbagh. It is also still very green, despite continuous development.

The rose protects itself from being eaten with its thorns, which are arranged in an irregular pattern.
