The church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, famous for "The Last Supper", a late 15th-century mural painting by Leonardo da Vinci in the refectory, one of the world's most famous paintings. That plastic octagon is only for advertising (it spoiled the harmony of the square, now removed)

Octagon, Ely Cathedral, Cambridgeshire, 12 May 2015
In 1322 the Norman crossing tower collapsed. Rebuilding was in the form of a much enlarged octagon. The sacrist, Alan of Walsingham, was in charge of the building work and he designed the octagon. Building work was completed in about 1340.
It was restored in mid-Victorian times by George Gilbert Scott.
Recently repainted. What a job it must be trying to keep all the buildings at the Genesee County Village in shape.
The octagon above the nave in the Cathedral Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity, also known as the Ely Cathedral, located in Ely, Cambridgeshire, England. In AD 672 an abbey church was built on the grounds of the current cathedral. The current church was started in 1083 and was granted cathedral status in 1109. It has continued to be the main church of the Diocese of Ely ever since.
Blocks are done, now I have to wait for more Kona Coal to arrive at my doorstep...

The Octagon. Dunedin, New Zealand. We called in here for refreshment while it was raining. It happened to be graduation day so there were many students around in cap and gown.
Eric came down on Wednesday and we drove over to Laguna Beach for lunch
overlooking the Pacific at The Cliff, a perfect place to enjoy a gorgeous fall day!

I folded Melisande's hexagonal star box www.flickr.com/photos/melisande-origami/12564522074/ and www.flickr.com/photos/melisande-origami/72020014 from an octagon. It also looks pretty good in a single color. Pacon neon construction paper - clearly not the greatest origami paper in the world, but it's cheap and sturdy, albeit on the thick side. Good substitute for duo if your model is simple and you don't mind the neon colors.
Architectural elements include the octagonal opening, used by O.D. Murray to keep an eye on the register while re-stocking the upstairs
To all who visit and view, and – especially – express support and satisfaction: you are much appreciated!

Catawba, NC – 2018JUL08 – Murray's Mill Historic Site:
Why did we go to Murray's Mill after church this morning?
A couple months ago, in May, Joe met Jennifer, Murray's Mill Historic District site manager, at a Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary church archive workshop in Columbia, South Carolina; at that time he told her we would like to come to her ice cream social today.
And we did!
We had a great time at Murray's Mill Annual Ice Cream Social! And we want to return for a waterside hike and picturesque picnic at the last milling complex in the county, meticulously preserved and interpreted by the Catawba County Historical Association.
See it soon, even without the free ice cream – an awesome treat! – or one of their other events usually attended by 5,000 people!
It was a wonderful day, with a welcome high of 84⁰F (below-average temperature for July), clear blue skies, pleasant low humidity...
Going home at 4:44 p.m., my cell phone battery was at 44% and I had 555 captures! Who could've guessed? Plus Joe took all of 12!
I seldom video, but both Joe and I took videos, plus photos.
The best of our 567 captures are in 2 mini-themed albums:

rhododendron molle subsp. japonicum in my garden. What a difference 8 blades compared to 12 blades make (see one of my previous posts with the Steinheil Cassar).

The candlelight creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, while the geometric shapes of the octagons add a touch of order and symmetry to the scene. The soft glow of the candles delicately illuminates the contours of the octagons, creating an intriguing and beautiful visual effect.

Possible choice for crop made far more interesting by a border. You know, I don't mind a border. Borders aren't cheating. You wouldn't stick a black and white photo on a white wall with no frame. You just wouldn't. If photos—indeed, any kind of two-dimensional art—were meant to be viewed simply stuck to a wall, artists and museums wouldn't frame anything.
I like it large.
Design that I've already seen somewhere else digferent times,.nut now I wanted to "expamd the paper beneath the design.
So instead of making the precreasing on all the paper i limited the creases just in the central part obtaining this "blossom from the paper"
Tant 15x15cm
Octagonal tessellation (test)
design: Alessandro Beber, 30 Dec. 2018
fold: Alessandro Beber, 31 Dec. 2018
paper: one uncut 20 cm regular octagon of tracing paper
Somehow, I never published this test, nor developed it further, yet (as it happened with several designs, I'll try to update someday).
This was a test fold of an easy procedure to make non-equilateral triangle twist folds, in this case isosceles triangles (in between squares and a regular octagon).
Then 2019 brought me in different directions following various commitments, but I may take some designs back and work on them next Autumn and Winter.
Or perhaps other people could do it, it's quite simple to try, and I think it may open some interesting possibilities for folding new unusual patterns.

Own design, inspired by by Meenakshi Mukerji’s Wondrous one sheet origami. Folded from a square but you can trim it down to an octagon if you accept cutting the paper. Same folding process can also be applied to a hexagon (in this case the petals do not overlap).
Paper: octagon cutted from 21 cm Julia's kaleidoscopic paper "Weimar"
Model: Tomoko Fuse

This is Variant B of this type of star (or is it a flower? Would be so nice to be able to read the names of the models....)
