Another abstract motion image taken on the coastline of John O' Groats in Scotland. If you would like an Abstract print or digital file, please send me a message.
Mini buttresses and pits in sand formed by an overnight rain testify to the many scales at which nature shapes the landscape with eye-appealing features. Cathedral Valley, Capitol Reef National Park
A very small (about 2" or 50.8mm) cross-section of a large, decaying log left behind from an Aleppo pine tree removed from my back yard in the early 2000s.
My attempt at the "Crazy Tuesday" theme "Patterns in Nature".

Macro Mondays theme Patterns in Nature. Goat's-beard - Tragopogon pratensis (also know as Jack-go-to-bed-at-noon because the flowers open only prior to 1pm). I found this on my walks through the meadows. The seedheads and seeds are bigger and more elegant than those of the dandelion. HMM...

Sorry for the lame reference to 1960’s pop rock (The Young Rascals).
Parallel grooves associated with erosion of layers of sand deposited a couple hundred million years ago provide some lovely eye candy in Bighorn Canyon, Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument. An earlier post showed evidence of dune cross-bedding, but this photo gives a better three-dimensional feel for the process of sand deposition on a sloping dune face, later covered by a more horizontal layer.
Pleasant light was captured over Tryfan as taken from Llyn Bochlwyd which is a short walk up the hill from the Ogwen Valley.
During a walk in Beddgelert, Afon Glaslyn flowed through Aberglaslyn and the light was particularly pleasant.
Native to North America, Echinacea purpurea is an herbaceous perennial that grows up to 120 cm in height and 25 cm wide.
The inflorescence is a capitulum, up to 15 cm in diameter, formed by a prominent domed central protuberance consisting of multiple small yellow florets.

Having to make five repetitions in a flower must be a bit more complicated than 4 or 8. It requires surely a lot of coordination... and that is the easy part if you think about the colored veins...
Make life simple 😄
Llanddwyn Island evokes a sense of tranquility, calm and peace. The tide was receding under stormy clouds with Twr Bach (Small Tower) standing proud.
Shortly after taking this image, the mist dissipated over Llyn Dinas. It was quite surreal how the mist took different forms over a short period of time.

Looking out toward Dulas Island (Ynys Dulas) from Lligwy Beach, Anglesey at sunrise. Dulas Island is a small island located off the North East Coast of Anglesey, about a mile and a half off shore. It has a rescue tower that once stored food and provided shelter for ship wrecked seamen. The tide had receded leaving water to reflect the sky's soft colour.

Just found this little one on our Milkweed plant today that I had planted last year. Very exciting - not great light, but wanted to get it when I saw it.

loving the straw flowers. There were many butterflies and dragonflies flying amongst the beautiful dahlias and straw flowers in this garden. I could have stayed there for hours, lol! : )
Not posted a Macro Monday shot for a long while, but I was taking shots in our newly-developing garden 3 or 4 days ago and thought that this might fit the bill if a little predictable :)
Macro Mondays - Patterns in Nature
It's really unusual for the sky to be full of mare's tails or "Cirrus uncinus". We can see them quite often, but mixed with other clouds. To get a complete sky full of mare's tails is really rare!
For the Tuesday cloud groups 😊
and for Crazy Tuesday - "patterns in nature" 😊
More about these clouds.
"Cirrus uncinus is a species of cirrus cloud. The name cirrus uncinus is Latin for "curly hooks". Commonly called "mare's tail", this cloud species is very thin and generally sparse in the sky.
The clouds occur at high altitudes, at a temperature of about −50 to −40 °C (−58 to −40 °F). They are generally seen when a warm or occluded front is approaching.
They are very high in the troposphere and generally mean that precipitation, usually rain, is approaching". Wiki

An interesting afternoon exploring the area around Ogwen Cottage, Tryfan and Ogwen's deep water in Eryri National Park.
The view point near the Ugly House in Capel Curig provides scenery toward Betws y Coed. I found these tress on the hill quite appealing with new colour for Spring.
Low tide at Traeth Bach, Southerdown, exposes the effects of tidal erosion on Jurassic carboniferous limestone.
Traeth Bach is Welsh for 'Small beach' - the next beach to the east is Traeth Mawr - 'big beach' - and yes, it's much longer than Traeth Mawr!
Patterns in the sand created by the tide at Clam Harbour Beach. I see a pareidolia dragon in this image.
I found this leaf just yesterday along the edge of the Shenandoah River. It measures: 1 1/2 inches across and top to bottom. I really liked it because it still had a bit of color to it. :)
