Perfect combo: shadow patterns on a patterned leaf. The patterns that we see in plants and flowers-is really quite mathematical. Genetically wired with algorithms that tell the plant how to grow-such as the Golden Ratio and Fibonacci sequences.
Don't be fooled into thinking that I understand this mathematic gobbledegook. I don't! I've told you all I know.
But, it is fascinating, isn't it?

This really tickles my fancy!
Nice capture, Paula! Thanks for linking to Shadow Shot Sunday 2.
Great shot, I have read about the math describing natures lines and forms and still haven't quite figured out whether nature follows the math, or the math was derived from nature.
Lovely shadow shot ~ I love lines of the plant ~ Happy Week to you ~ ^_^
