~ Lens-Artists Photo Challenge # 272: Symmetry ~


This week Sylvie invites us to feature photos of symmetry. On a beautiful sunny day walking along Long Beach as waves crested and swept in, I saw them as symmetrical lines in motion. Then I read John RH’s first post on this challenge, in which he introduced the lyrics from the song Poetry in Motion. That was the jump start I needed! “A wave out on the ocean could never move that way.”

Symmetry in Motion

“Have you heard the news – the world goes on by twos.”

Upon Reflection

Radical Radial Symmetry

Round and round we go, earth circles sun, moon circles earth, seasons change in a circular pattern, coming back round to another autumn, winter, spring, summer – on and on. Nature is at home with symmetry. Better yet, symmetry originated in nature.

On your walk with life, please honor our earth, encourage dignity and share kindness. 🐾

*Martin Charnin, Richard Rodgers

    Well you may be later than some Lindy but your choices are truly terrific! I loved your ocean selection especially but the saddles are terrific and a great capture and of course who can resist those eagles?!
