The patterns delineated here have not yet been classified by a Linnaeus of human bondage. They are all, perhaps, strangely, familiar.
In these pages I have confined myself to laying out only some of those I actually have seen. Words that come to mind to name them are: knots, tangles, fankles, impasses, disjunctions, whirligogs, binds.
I could have remained closer to the ‘raw’ data in which these patterns appear. I could have distilled them further towards an abstract logico-mathematical, calculus. I hope they are not so schematized that one may not refer back to the very specific experiences from which they derive; yet that they are sufficiently independent of ‘content’, for one to divine the final formal elegance in these webs of maya.

In the 1270's, the Mogollon People built these elaborate stone-walled structures in caves above cliff dweller creek. By the year 1300, the entire community abandoned this location and mysteriously vanished into history. It's likely they dispersed across the four corners region, possibly assimilating into other tribes.

Scientific study: “COVID-19 lockdown effects on adolescent brain structure suggest accelerated maturation that is more pronounced in females than in males”.
www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2403200121
“Since accelerated brain maturation has been associated with increased risk for the development of neuropsychiatric and behavioral disorders, these findings highlight the importance of providing ongoing monitoring and support to individuals who were adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Like we were told during covid: follow the science!
Galatians 2:18 “Why, if I am now rebuilding that structure of sin which I had demolished, I am thereby constituting myself a transgressor.”

The photograph shows a bit of the indifference in the municipality's supervision on coastal locations in Kuwait. As you can see, the beach is full of rubbish and dirt which has destroyed the natural look of the sand. Making the place somehow unusable. Anyway, it is also related to the people's awareness of this subject. I think multimedia means in the country must pay attention to this problem and raise people's awareness.
Technical Data:
It is not a HDR photograph, the bottom part is exposed by hitting a lot of flashes - which made me blind =D - by me and my friend. The white balance was taken down to 2700 to give this pinkish mood to the photo. Long exposure was used in order to prevent noise from high ISO and to give a special effect to the water.

Time for some tourist attraction photos. The Eye has been done to death, but I quite liked the spiky bridge structures around it.
The monochrome perspective of a bridge connecting two urban buildings emphasizes the harmonious connection between nature and architecture.

The first structure seen by visitors arriving at the complex is the massive Henry Ford Museum. Covering 49,000 square meters, or about twelve acres, this structure is one of the largest museums in the country and contains a staggering variety of attractions and exhibits. The main entrance of the museum is a careful recreation of Independence Hall in Philadelphia, flanked by a symmetrical procession of brick colonial-style structures. When the museum was being designed, Mr. Ford sent architects to Philadelphia to study and measure the original Independence Hall, and while there, they discovered that one of the windows was actually off-center. It had been placed one brick too far to one side. The architects told Mr. Ford what they had found and informed him that they would not make the same mistake — and he instructed them to recreate it exactly like the original, misplaced window and all.
Fort Lauderdale station is an inter-city rail station located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It is served by Brightline, which connects Miami, West Palm Beach, and Orlando International Airport. The station is located in downtown Fort Lauderdale, on NW 2nd Avenue between Broward Boulevard and NW 4th Street, adjacent to the Broward County Transit's Central Terminal.
Construction for the station began in October 2014 with the demolition of existing structures on the site. The complex consists of an elevated concourse above an 800-foot-long (240 m), 35-foot-wide (11 m) island platform for the trains. The station is a modern-style structure with illuminated V-shaped columns supporting the upper concourse, echoing the designs of the Miami and West Palm Beach stations on the line. It was planned and designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in association with Zyscovich Architects, and was completed in January 2018.
