This week’s CFFC topic is Patterns in Nature. Your photos can consist of urban or suburban scenes. I live in a rather small town, so getting into a big city, I don’t do that often. I think what I really like about Maarten Vromans photos is they tell a story without being filled with a lot of clutter.
This challenge both new and archived photos are allowed. The main purpose of this challenge is to create community and get to know each other through photography.

Interesting – I’ve never looked at corn that way – too busy munching on it… It’s interesting the number of things that can been seen when you move in closer!

The tree said to me; why don’t you take a picture it’ll last longer? So I shot him. https://photographyocd.com/2021/01/19/conversation-with-a-tree/

Great topic for the week! I’ve always been fascinated by ice formations, probably because I grew up in coastal southern cities with no such thing. Here’s my icy post: https://maximizingluxurytravel.com/2021/01/19/ice-patterns-on-the-skyline-drive/

All I can think about that corn is that those strings might get stuck in my teeth. 🙂
