This is a close-up photo of the intriguing patterns on a beach stone.

When I saw the sky this morning the term mackerel sky came to mind so I googled it. Interesting to learn the names for these clouds formations in other languages: "It is sometimes known as a buttermilk sky, particularly when in the early cirrocumulus stage, in reference to the clouds' "curdled" appearance.[7] In France it is sometimes called a ciel moutonné (fleecy sky); and in Spain a cielo empedrado (cobbled sky);[8] in Germany it is known as Schäfchenwolken (sheep clouds), and in Italy the clouds are known as pecorelli (little sheep)." en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mackerel_sky

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.

Macro Monday Theme...Patterns in nature

I love the intricate seedheads that follow the cheerful little flowers...

Rosen skyddar sig mot att bli äten på med sina taggar som sitter i ett oregelbundet mönster.

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

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.

My 100X project for 2017, Patterns in Nature. I like how this collage shows the colors changing with the seasons.

Happy Macro Monday to all flickr friends, HMM

 

p.s. this a small leaf of a tomato plant, wide about 2cm

The daphne usually starts blooming in January, but this winter the flowers couldn’t stand up to the weather we’ve had. Turning brown before they’re even fully open.

First 20 of my 100X project, Patterns in Nature.

 

I know the calendar still says winter, but I'm moving on to springtime folks!

This is a photo of mesmerizing reflection patterns on the river.

I am very lucky to have a sister in law who keeps Peafowl. They are very tame and whilst she was feeding them I was able to get very close and get this shot whilst he was displaying for the Peahens, although when he turned I and the camera nearly got tangled up in his feathers. The image is approx 2" x 3" . This year she has had another 8 chicks in total. I would love to have a couple but hubby says NO and I don't think my neighbours would appreciate the noise they make!!!!!

Bark has always been something that I like taking photos of. Today I took a little walk and found this piece of art on a tree. So this is my contribution to this weeks Macro Mondays.

For 'Macro Mondays' theme of 'Patterns in Nature

 

We do have birds in our garden. In most instances they get on pretty well together - there is a bit of squabbling and sometimes a bird of prey flies through. Sometimes a farm cat causes some upset, but not when it sees me - I'm the danger then!

 

So how did the pheasant lose one of its tail feathers?

Found some time back and kept as a possible photo prop, it's a very battered feather. Perhaps it's just a natural lose because there were no others on the grass the morning I found it.

 

This is only a portion of the feather because its over 24 inches long. So the real challenge this week was to restrict myself to the view of 3 inches, getting as much feather in as possible, and getting as much in focus as I could. After several attempts I reverted to my little 'point & shoot' camera, and cropped the result, It's lit with just one light.

 

Panasonic Lumix LF1 ................................................. close to 3 inches.

"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."
