coral forms and natural shapes


after watching a fair too many nature documentary's as i have too much time on my hands on bbc iplayer and 4od i noticed patterns in coral formations. its like the best place to look for information is nature and i found loads of things.


there are extraordinary and beautiful things created by nature and natural formations. the them of the project is repeat and nature has a funny way of repeating its self in its self. there is a lot of pattern and symmetry within nature.


there is loads of pictures that relate to the theme.


i love this image. i even have it as my laptop background. i like it because its an orb shape and its repeats its self and its amazing knowing how these coral reefs work.


this is a similar shape which can be reproduced using paper, or a similar pattern at least. it almost looks like a brain.


there are loads of these corals in the world, they certainly are not rare. they cant help but remind me of a brain though.


the patterns are very similar. similar patterns can be found a lot in nature. the coral and brain pattern has give me a good idea for what i might do
