I find the surface structure of these worth looking at!
They are an F1 hybrid - a cross between cantaloupe and the netted-rind early melon - the pattern comes from the second of these parents.
The dense reticular pattern of rough lines forming a netting like covering on the skin.
A structure that lends itself to pointing a macro lens at!

Sitting in a cafe. The warm autumn sun on some wooden chairs. The seats formed in a smooth shape were somehow in interaction with the sunlight. the Illumination of the seats emphasizes their surface, form, design and material.

-----------------------------------
Obsidian is a glassy-textured, extrusive igneous rock. Obsidian is natural glass - it lacks crystals, and therefore lacks minerals. Obsidian is typically black in color, but most obsidians have a felsic to intermediate chemistry. Felsic igneous rocks are generally light-colored, so a felsic obsidian seems a paradox. Mafic obsidians are scarce, but they are also black and glassy. Mafic glass is usually called tachylite (if black) or sideromelane (if golden-brown).
Obsidian is an uncommon rock, but can be examined at several famous localities in America, such as Obsidian Cliff at the Yellowstone Hotspot (northwestern Wyoming, USA) and Big Obsidian Flow at the Newberry Volcano (central Oregon, USA).
Obsidian is moderately hard and has a conchoidal fracture (smooth and curved fracture surface), with sharp broken edges. Freshly-broken obsidian has the sharpest edges of any material known, natural or man-made (as seen under a scanning electron microscope).
Obsidian forms two ways: 1) very rapid cooling of lava, which prevents the formation of crystals; 2) cooling of high-viscosity lava, which prevents easy movement of atoms to form crystals. An example of obsidian (tachylite) that formed the first way is along the margins of basaltic lava flows at Kilaeua Volcano (Hawaii Hotspot, central Pacific Ocean). Most obsidian formed the second way.
Seen here is velvet rainbow obsidian, a rare variety. The rainbow effect is two-beam interference coloration (see: www.flickr.com/photos/jsjgeology/albums/72157672953170470/ ). Two-beam interference colors in Mexican rainbow obsidian occur due to the presence of flow-aligned microphenocryst rods in the glass (Ma et al., 2001). Microphenocrysts can be hedenbergite pyroxene (CaFeSi2O6) or plagioclase feldspar (NaAlSi3O8 to CaAl2Si2O8).
Locality: unrecorded / undisclosed site in Jalisco State, Mexico (but possibly from the La Revoltosa Mine at Mount San Andreas, east of the town of San Andrés, Magdalena Municipality, northwestern Jalisco State, western Mexico)

A tight macro composition of frosted sea glass pieces arranged on a glossy black surface. The glass fragments are smooth and rounded from prolonged tumbling in water, with matte, etched surfaces that diffuse light. Colors include saturated emerald green, olive green, pale aqua, icy blue, and a warm amber tone. Backlighting causes the glass to glow internally, emphasizing translucency and subtle internal gradients. Fine surface pitting and micro-scratches are visible, reinforcing texture and age. The black background creates strong contrast and isolates the forms, giving the image an abstract, graphic quality.
The composition is cropped closely, allowing the shapes to fill the frame and overlap slightly. Highlights are controlled but present as soft specular blooms on the curved surfaces. The result reads as both natural object study and color-field abstraction.
This image of a rugged part of Mercury’s surface was captured by the ESA/JAXA BepiColombo mission on 4 September 2024 as the spacecraft sped by for its fourth of six gravity assist manoeuvres at the planet.
It was taken at 23:51 CEST by the Mercury Transfer Module’s monitoring camera 3 (M-CAM 3), just three minutes after closest approach, when the spacecraft was only about 221 km from the planet’s surface. The spacecraft’s closest approach of 165 km took place at 23:48 CEST.
M-CAM 3 was looking straight down towards the surface of Mercury when taking the image. This factor, combined with the very close distance to Mercury, makes this the highest resolution image we’ll ever get from this camera.
The back of the Mercury Planetary Orbiter’s high-gain antenna and part of the spacecraft’s body are also visible in front of Mercury in this image. Mercury Planetary Orbiter is one of two orbiters that will separate from the carrier spacecraft following arrival in orbit around Mercury.
North is to the upper left.

In a blinding, golden sunset, Kenosha's Chicago Surface Lines PCC 4606 (in reality an ex-Toronto car) trundles through the lawn along 54th St at 3rd Ave, returning to the transit center and Metra station. Looks like there's just a couple riders on board- other than when some kind of special event is happening on the lakefront, this is typical.
