Description
Summary:"'Patterns: Art of the Natural World' unveils the intricate patterns woven throughout our planet--from animal markings to sweeping landscapes, geological formations, and botanical designs. Born during the quiet months of the COVID-19 pandemic, when travel stopped and daily life slowed, the book grew from Jon McCormack's evening walks along a small stretch of beach near his home. Returning night after night to the same spot, he discovered a new way of seeing, using photography to reveal the hidden harmony and symmetry of the natural world. The resulting images span volcanic coasts, icy fjords, lush rainforests, and deserts--from hippo trails in Botswana to ice caves in Svalbard. Accompanied by essays from explorers and scientists, 'Patterns' celebrates the interconnectedness of life and the fragile, timeless artistry of nature" -- publisher's website.
