Tesselations

back to photoblog index

I found some surprising results forcing nature photos into tesselated patterns, forcing each edge to merge with the edge at the flip side of the image. Especially amazing is how the brain then interacts with the graphical components of these tiled images, attempting to label and make sense out of them like, oh that one's a cathedral ceiling made of lilies, or that one looks like an Indian blanket, or the shadowy stripes in that one suggest tigers.
