The Daily Shoot 114

14 years ago

The Daily Shoot assignment for Tuesday 9 March (#ds114) was “Most of us enjoy some symmetry in our lives. Look around for it today and make a symmetrical photo.”

There are several different types of symmetry, mathematically speaking: rotation, reflection, and translation being the basic, most familiar ones. Since everyone seemed to be going for reflection symmetry prior to my shot, I thought I’d do translation symmetry:

Zig-zag plant beds

Again I “cheated” by pointing my camera out the window from my desk. The window is slightly tinted, giving the grayish pallor to the photo. Perhaps I should have bumped the greens up a bit and reduced the blues.
