I loved these ones, especially the second to last one. Interesting how the lines go in different directions with a clear "cut" in the middle. Thank you for sharing.

Wonderful shapes and textures. With image no4, are we viewing through rippling water? There is that look of sunlight casting patterns through the ever-changing flow..

perfectlight's avatar

thank you! no, the no.4 is a standing stone that capture my attention for the "splitting the stone" look 😁

Great shots! I love finding interesting patterns and shapes like this. Makes you feel like they’ve been waiting a mere billion years for you to come along and capture them :)

perfectlight's avatar

i agree. thank you!

Wonderful! Reminds me of some of the interesting rocks I've photographed on California beaches. I keep looking at those images in my portfolio thinking I should do something with them.

perfectlight's avatar

yes, you should at least share them with us

Perfectlight... The images speak for themselves. I need to learn to let images breath as you show here! Brevity is good. Your images are not only visual, but I can almost feel the textures in them. Nice Work. Thank you.

I had to look at them on the big screen! Nice textures. How long did you hang out there photographing the rocks? 😃

perfectlight's avatar

believe it or not, very little

Not just boulders or rocks. They’re about beautiful textures naturally created over time by just existing 🌏

Fantastic patterns and textures. ‘Rock’ somehow undersells just how varied they are in formation and also in how they erode.

Nature does beautiful work, and you did a great job capturing it!

I love this and I am always looking for these kinds of things. Nature's way of talking to you :). p.s. I don't know why this post did not appear in my list of new updates in my email nor on the web. I think there are some Substack flaws in delivery. I have found that two of the people I subscribed to long ago were somehow removed from my subscriptions too. Strange!

perfectlight's avatar

thank you!

the substack's algorithms are acting strangely in the last ... year, i would say. i have myself problem seeing posts from people that i subscribed to long ago. i can't see notifications for my own posts!

Juliette's avatar

That IS strange! Well, if I don't see your content, I usually go looking for you :).

I love these! I’ve been really into photographing patterns and textures on my daily walks lately as well.
