This is just a variation of a previous pattern with 1x1 plates between the headlight bricks in each square. I was just curious tosee what would happen. I think there are too many lines going every which way, but it might be a nice effect if it were monochromatic...
I'm still 'ghosting' the WLDC themed walks. This is my optional theme. You may even say it's my dream theme. I found this peculiar space in the basement of Selfridge's department store.
I'll be away for a couple of weeks looking for Alice in a deconstructed three-dimensional chess board

On October 18th I attended a workshop put on by the photography club that I belong to in San Diego, Polyphoto Club. The purpose of the workshop was to teach us to take the time to really "look" at something in order to see the beauty in "everyday" and "ordinary" things. Perhaps as a result of this workshop, I took the time to look at the sunlight this afternoon streaming though a set of venetian blinds to cast these shadow patterns onto a piece of varnished wood. I've probably looked at this hundreds of times in the past without "seeing" it. I'm not saying that this is a beautiful photograph, but what I "saw" was beautiful enough to get my attention.
Kiriko, Portland, Oregon
From Kiriko's Web site:
Kiriko is a lifestyle brand forged from the spirit of Mottainai (勿体無い); a Japanese value that embraces one to waste nothing and recycle everything.
Long ago, cloth was hand-woven with patterns that held meaning and dyed with materials available through the seasons. In this way we cycled with the seasons, not trends. We made memories with our belongings instead of replace them with mass produced goods. When we began to lose touch with the tradition of making in this way, we stopped treasuring our clothes.
"We believe fabric is everything."
We are always searching Japan for vibrant Kasuri - both vintage and those made today in craft houses generations’ old, hand-dyed Shibori, and centuries old Boros. Our apparel and accessories display the incredible traditional craftsmanship and care small textile factories in Japan boast. By purchasing our products, you are not only helping Kiriko Made as a small emerging brand, but also all the factories in Japan that create the materials we are fortunate enough to use.
Wear them, love them, and hand them down.

These plumbing lines for a new outdoor arena and skating path in my neighbourhood had a great graphic pattern to them.
I was thrilled to discover this tree in the Forbidden City. An absolute gem of a tree; no photo can do it justice. A name tag identified it as a Pinus bungeana Zucc.
From my archive
The Comma (Polygonia c-album) is a species of butterfly belonging to the family Nymphalidae. Its irregular wing edges are characteristic of the Polygonia genus, which is why they are commonly called anglewings. It is found in northern Africa and across Europe from Portugal through Asia as far as Japan. Its dorsal wings are colourful but its underside has a pattern that camouflages it when its wings are held together.
De gehakkelde aurelia (Polygonia c-album) is een dagvlinder uit de familie Nymphalidae, onderfamilie Nymphalinae (aurelia's of schoenlappers). Deze middelgrote vlinder komt voor in een groot deel van het Palearctisch gebied en zijn verspreidingsgebied breidt zich onder invloed van de klimaatverandering steeds verder uit naar het noorden.
De gehakkelde aurelia is in Nederland en België een algemene soort, die bij bosranden, struweel en in parken en tuinen kan worden waargenomen. Met de dagpauwoog, atalanta, kleine vos en landkaartje is de gehakkelde aurelia een van de "brandnetelsoorten" onder de dagvlinders, waarvan de rupsen vooral op brandnetel te vinden zijn. Het menu van de rups van de gehakkelde aurelia kan echter ook uit andere planten bestaan. De vlinder overwintert als volwassen dier verstopt in boomholtes of tussen afgevallen blad.
