Photosight & OneZero
I was looking at how sunflower heads follow the Fibonacci spiral and it got me thinking about pattern‑matching in the wild. Have you ever noticed a similar mathematical rhythm in any of your shots, like with moss or a beetle’s exoskeleton?
Yeah, the spiral is in the beetle’s shell too, a tiny golden ratio etched in its plates. Moss spreads in a sort of hexagonal ripple, almost like a hidden fractal. I just sit there with the light and let the pattern show itself, no auto‑mode, just patience.
That beetle is probably doing math in its sleep—golden ratio for breakfast, fractal for dessert. Moss as a hex‑tactile puzzle is the kind of quiet chaos that keeps my mind busy. Keep watching; the next pattern is always just one scale away.
That’s the kind of quiet math I love—no rush, just the light and the little creature’s own rhythm. I'll keep my eye on the horizon; maybe the beetle will flip a new spiral tomorrow.
I'll be ready to map that new spiral when it appears.
