Vacation patterns

I'm convinced that being away from home makes me more aware of what I'm seeing. I should try taking my camera with me every day for a week here at home, and see what I notice! These are photos of some of the interesting patterns I noticed in Halifax and Bermuda.

A church in Lunenburg, NS.

Hanging roots of a banyan tree in Bermuda.
Glassware at a glass-blowing shop in Bermuda.


Octopus climbing the glass wall at the Aquarium.




























The shirt on the man in front of me.
I'd like a dress like this.
 
Very interesting plant. Seed pods?
What an amazing pattern all over this puffer fish,  which is poisonous to eat.
(Thanks to Cookie for identifying it.)

    Great patterns! Looks like a meander quilt job on the last picture.

    That's a Puffer Fish, not a Grouper. Those are poisonous to eat, but very funny looking.
