“It frequently happens ... — and this is one of the charms of photography — that the operator himself discovers on examination, perhaps long afterwards, that he has depicted many things he had no notion of at the time.”
[William Henry Fox Talbot, The Pencil of Nature. 1844–1846, London: Longman, Brown, Green.]

I'm thinking you've revealed a form of Fibonacci spirals and angry leaf eyes. Not to mention that your feet are a lot smaller than Dale's size 10½. :-)
Loved it.
I love this, both the photo and the quote. I believe the quote pertains to mental as well as photo images.
Excellent photo Felix : )
Nice one.
The same goes for existence? "...himself discovers on examination, perhaps long afterwards, that he has experienced many things that he had not much notion of at the time..."
