Wow! What an outstanding image, Patti! Its composition is compelling with its powerful lines. And then there is the juxtaposition of natural and man made patterns. We have a long way to go as a species to come even close to what nature produces, particularly when we mar our patterns with refuse and chewing gum.

Fantastic image so well entitled! I couldn't agree more with Steve's assessment of both our world and your wonderful photo within its confines! There is an opening up to it (if you get what I mean). The light is fantastic as if on a lonely, yet ornate street, the universe, (or the light bulb), makes one aware of that beautiful cat's shape and patterns, trumping the street's attempts! This is really, really something nice! #8330232Patti Coblentz January 26, 2010 0
