Hidden Patterns

I like being able to figure out interesting ways to photograph familiar subjects that shows them in a much different way than people are used to seeing them (usually in a way that draws attention to something I’ve noticed about them). These photos are a good example of that concept:

If you weren’t able to figure it out, these are veins on the ‘wings’ of maple seeds (which are technically called samaras). The samara in the second to last photo is the oldest; the green between the veins is actually the background because that one was pretty translucent. These were all cropped at least slightly which gives them a nice abstract look, but I also liked some of them uncropped too.
