From a lot of nothing to a little bit of everything
Lens-Artist Photo Challenge: Perfect Patterns Some time back I wrote about the Fibonacci pattern in nature. https://sprawly.wordpress.com/2017/03/11/patterns-in-nature-or-the-fibonacci-sequence/ It's fascinating and now I look for it everywhere; and it IS everywhere!

Lens-Artist Photo Challenge: Diagonals Diagonals, leading lines... they're everywhere! I love taking photos of roads. Especially when you don't know where they lead.

Hair. It's a magical, fantastical, incredible material. We can cut it without pain. We can change it's color. We can shape it and even change it's structure. It regenerates itself even after we've nuked it with chemotherapy. We can see what's in the body (chemicals, drugs, nutrients etc.) by testing the hair. Straight hair strands... Continue Reading →
