Macro Monday - Patterns in Nature

Underside of a fern

Sadly I still haven't quite recovered from playing with photos, so this is probably the last one for a while. I think it looks vaguely like a Nautilus, in terms of the pattern, and i happen to have this weird track on my playlist, so Nautilus, by B Bumble and the Stingers it is! www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMs3IUItqGo

This was in a neighbor's front yard. I don't know what kind of plant this is, but it has amazing patterns! Black and white really brought them out. I added a blue filter in Aperture (yes, there really is a use for that ;) which also emphasized the patterns.

7 of my designs are in the book "patterns"

"Intertwined" is just some Photoshop digital pattern play.

Nature never ceases to amaze me. This rock in a mixed spruce/fir forest on the Maine coast is covered with lichens of various shapes and colors.

I can't get enough of simple texture, lines, and patterns.

This is the Type of Photography I am trying to concentrate on for this Year. Simple "Situations" with somehow structured Surroundings. The Common Things or "Everyday Life" - enjoy!!

Spring blooms in the Mojave Desert.

This species was spotted at Spring Mountain Ranch, Red Rock Canyon, NV. While the name would lead one to believe this is a type of grass...it is a flowering plant with narrow leaves. There is conjecture the leaves gave rise to the 'grass' affiliation.

This spotting is in question as to taxonomy of Sisyrinchium per the below comments. Best guess is Sisyrinchium radicatum (St. George blue eyed grass).

USDA profile...

I attempted to make wedgewood pattern cookies. With advice from Yukiko and Marlyn, I attempted to paint flowers with icing (mixing piping gel with royal icing - which does dry hard if anyone else had this question). Thanks also to those who helped me get the proper wedgewood color!! This tray truly took a village to create!! I have a LONG, LONG way to be as good as Yukiko, but there are a couple that turned out considering I had absolutely no experience at handpainting cookies.
