It’s Patti’s turn to challenge us. She says “I’m asking you to be a photo detective, hunting for geometry—-circles, rectangles, squares, triangles, arches, spirals–on the street, or in nature, or in unexpected places–like in your kitchen or on a bookshelf. In your images, the geometric shapes are the main focus.”
Geometry in Architecture
Geometry in Nature
Geometry in other places
Last week you showed us beauty in the imperfect, incomplete and impermanent in response to Sofia’s challenge Wabi Sabi. Thank you to everyone who joined the challenge.
Many thanks to our host Patti for this week’s fun challenge. If you would like to join the challenge please be sure to tag your post with Lens-Artists and include a link back to her post Lens-Artists #422: Geometry.
Be sure to check back on Saturday, November 14 at noon eastern time when I’ll be hosting the challenge.
You can keep up with all of our challenges by subscribing to the Lens-Artists team members websites: Tina, Patti, Ann-Christine, John, Sofia, Anne, Egidio, Ritva, Beth.

These are fun examples Beth. I particularly like the Jameson building with the geometric shapes and color contrasts.

Brad, thank you so much! I didn’t think about geometry when I took that photo of the Jameson Distillery but when I went back through my archives I thought it would be perfect for this challenge.

Oh Beth you sure had a great collection of “geometry” photographs. They’re all brills, but my two favs are Jameson’s, because Mum and Dad took me there (Dublin) one summer whilst we were staying in Scotland; and, natch, the wagon wheel – as you know, I’m a sucker for all things farm. Great post! Can’t wait for tomorrow!!! xx

Thanks Pam. This is the Jameson’s in Middleton. The wagon wheel is from my family’s farm and is now in my garden.

I especially like how you’ve captured geometry in both architecture and nature. The natural arches and flower patterns are beautiful reminders that geometry is everywhere if we take a closer look.

I enjoyed these, Macys stood out to me for some reason, you never know what it might be the thing that captured the attention, maybe the clock. Great gallery of images

Ritva, thank you. I’m so glad you like the Macy’s image. I chose it because I like the clock in the middle of the rectangles in the windows. Plus it was fun to see it when I was in New York City.

You had me with that first shot – I do like a Jameson’s! And of course that building is perfect for a geometry challenge 🙂 But my favourite is the Arches image, as I love the way we see one arch through the frame of another.

Fun photos Beth! I liked the lanterns in the Disney resort. I seem to gravitate towards orbs and things that are circular. That purple flower is really pretty too though. 🙂

Nothing like a few shots of Jamison to make you appreciate the geometry of its distillery. My fav has to be the arches, which I have photographed many times!

Thanks Curt! We enjoyed touring the Jameson Distillery and the tasting at the end! I had a hard time deciding which photo of arches to include. I’m glad you like this one.
