Project 365: Pattern

     I'm not a very good photographer. So, when I attempted my own "Project 365" a year ago, I failed miserably. I was pointing and clicking at pretty much anything for the sake of taking a picture. That project did not last long. And for good reason. It served no purpose.

     So instead I took on a different challenge: 365 Facts. A new fact each day for a year. That actually lasted a while. But it's been four months since I've recorded a single fact, so I've had to retire that as well. On the bright side if you want to learn some really quick and random facts you can check out that short-lived project here.

     A week or so ago I was blog hopping when I came across Life in Limbo. Stephanie had recently done a Photo Walk while focusing on the patterns that she came across. Having always been a fan of art, I remember what I had learned about patterns.

     Patterns are everywhere. They are aesthetically pleasing, and are often used to draw the viewer's attention to a piece of art. It's pattern that suggests order and harmony. Yes, pattern deserves it's moment in the spotlight.

I had my inspiration. 365 days, 365 patterns from the world around me.

Here are some examples:
