Patterns

Sometimes you don't need a whole picture to know what you're looking at. Sometimes just a glimpse of a pattern or texture gives it away.

Power play

Still at Rio San Gabriel Riverbed. These are pictures of the power lines along the east side of the bike path. I liked the lines and the repeated patterns. Some of the wires above look like they've taken on a life of their own, almost like some kind of really big toy.

Circles

On Firestone there is an auto body shop whose front window is filled with all kinds of rims. I like the patterns of circles within squares. And, of course, the lighting at night just adds to the interest.

Lines

It always amazes me the kind of things I notice when I walk instead of drive around Downey. Tossed Christmas trees, natural ornaments... But even walking, I rarely think to look straight up.

The geometric patterns made by all of these power lines makes a kind of beauty, don't you think?
