I can't explain my fascination with sunflowers

This is a close-up B&W photo of patterns in a thin layer of ice that formed in shallow channels beside the river.

The wings of this dragonfly offer unusual lighted patterns

HMM

Came out one morning last week to find these amazing (and huge) patterns on the roof of my car. Add in some reflected light from my neighbours red brick house - and you can get some pretty interesting effects!

Walking through the main square nearby Baixa-Chiado, patterns in the pavement play with one's perspective. A pigeon in the top right sets the scale.

More ice patterns...this time from last year

We're in our third consecutive day of fog, so I thought that I would post something to remember that we DO see sunshine occasionally.

Striped patterns are usually caused by layers of sediment that have accumulated over time.

Beyond the stunning colors, an ongoing reminder of how a natural canyon has recorded the passage of geologic time.

Shot from a narrow passage while hiking one of the most scenic canyons between Nweiba and Saint Catherine.

The patterns kept changing depending on how much the wind was blowing.

I always like patterns in nature, and this rock that was part of a cliff fall really stood out.

as it is..

Creative sowing by local farmer grows into awesome pattern and texture on this South Hummocks farm in rural South Australia.

Inside Hassan II mosque in Casablanca. The windows facing the Atlantic ocean are decorated with patterns that create opportunities for photography.

Never to be the same again; shaped by wind and wave in that period between tides. A walk along the Northumberland coast left me travelling light, photographically, with only camera plus nifty-fifty. However, this “limitation” helped me work quickly making the most of the light and such a variety of compositional options.

Well, I loved my grater pattern so much I thought I'd try one with different colours underneath. It reminds me of rainbow sherbet, lol!
