Photo Essay: Patterns
Since it seems my last photo essay, Reflections, was a big hit, I thought we would continue with another theme this month: patterns. I chose these images because of their unique perspective on a particular minute detail; in some cases it’s clear what you’re looking at, but in others it isn’t. In all of them (except for one or two
) you can’t really tell where the photo was taken.
It’s just a brief reminder when you’re on your travels to open your eyes. The old adage is true – look up, you’ll see more.

Stay Tuned – I’ve already picked out a fun theme for next month’s essay, very appropriate for summer.
