“A love like ours
A starry flower
Through seasons and centuries
As rivers reach the sea
You’ll reach me
With songs of your symmetry
A small boat
There will float
To far off coasts
The Isle of Infinity

Come with me, oh come with me”

"A single white petunia unfurls in the center of the frame like a soft trumpet of light. Its five petals are gently ruffled at the edges, forming a shallow bowl that cradles a sunlit yellow center. From this golden throat, faint blue speckles radiate outward—like stardust scattered across a pale canvas—while delicate veins trace subtle paths toward each petal’s edge, whispering of structure and breath. The flower’s surface is velvety, almost cloudlike, with a quiet luminosity that catches the morning light. Surrounding the bloom is a lush tapestry of green foliage, including variegated leaves striped in white and green, adding contrast and rhythm to the composition. These leaves curve and cluster like ceremonial attendants, framing the petunia with reverent symmetry. The photograph is intimate and sharply focused, capturing the intricate textures of petal, vein, and leaf with clarity and grace. The watermark “© Swede’s Photographs” rests in the bottom left corner, a quiet signature of witness and authorship. This image feels like a moment of stillness—a sovereign bloom held in time, radiant and composed, offering its quiet dignity to the archive." - Microsoft Copilot

MANDIBLE.BMF
An anatomical illustration of a human mandible or lower jaw. Dr. Slife studies the model in his study late at night, fingering the mandible back and forth between his hands. On one level Slife knows—of course he knows—there are eight teeth per side. On another level Slife suddenly realizes there is a profound disconnect in the symmetry of humans between their hands and their mouths. Five digits per side. But eight teeth. As if human mouths contained the kernel of binary exponential mathematics, the realm of calculators and computers. Eight teeth per quarter. Sixteen per side. Thirty-two total. The next step in human evolution is obviously—though the thought has never occurred to Slife until just now—sixty-four teeth. A mandible is a computer, thinks Slife, a little high now from his homemade whippet. In the shadow of the study a barely visible figure in green smiles yes in agreement.

"A single red petunia dominates the frame, its velvety petals unfurling like a ceremonial banner. The flower is fully open, revealing a lush, symmetrical bloom with five broad petals that curve gently outward. Each petal is saturated in deep crimson, with darker veins radiating from the center like tributaries of color—giving the flower a sense of depth and texture, as if painted by hand. At the heart of the petunia lies a small greenish-yellow center, soft and recessed, where the petals converge in quiet symmetry. The surface of the petals appears plush, almost tactile, with subtle shadows and highlights that suggest a gentle morning light or artistic enhancement. Surrounding the red bloom are hints of green foliage and a glimpse of a neighboring purple flower, slightly blurred, adding contrast and context. The background is a soft mosaic of color—greens, purples, and muted tones—that frames the petunia without distraction. The image feels intimate and vibrant, as if the flower is leaning forward to speak. It’s a portrait of botanical elegance, captured in a moment of radiant stillness." - Microsoft Copilot

Crinoids, aka sea lilies, look like lilies in this plate from Kunstformen der Natur (1904) by Haeckel, but they are in reality echinoderms, animals with five-pointed radial symmetry seen in the stem ossicle cross sections that look like stars.
Coin for scale.

An illustration of a variety of crinoids, several attached to their stems trailing below them, several in cross sections that highlight their pentamerous symmetry. The central specimen has its feathery feeding arms spread making it look like a flower. #sciart #ocean #oceanlife #invertebrate #invertober

The ROK Restaurant in Reykjavik — example of how traditional Icelandic turf-roof design meets modern simplicity. The grass-covered roof links the building to older styles + the clean cladding symmetry keep it contemporary.

#Photography #Monochrome #Iceland #Reykjavik #Architecture #blackandwhite
A black-and-white photograph of a two-storey wooden building in Reykjavik. The facade is symmetrical, with a central doorway and five evenly spaced windows. The roof slopes on both sides and is covered with patches of grass, recalling Icelandic turf-house traditions. Reflections in the windows show nearby trees and street life. The sign above the door reads “ROK.”

Looking back, I think the best, most important, and, frankly, fun physics lecture was about symmetry.

It's amazing how many problems can be solved by looking for invariants.

And forty-five years later, I still use it almost daily.

An abstract digital painting depicts five witches standing in a line against a swirling red and gray background. The figures are tall and spectral, dressed in tattered, flowing black garments that merge with the surrounding shadows. Their faces are pale and serene, with sharp, stylized features accentuated by deep shadows and delicate highlights. Each witch wears a broad, pointed hat, the brims tilted in varying directions, giving the group a sense of ritual symmetry and individuality. The central figure has striking red hair and appears to emanate a subtle glow, as if she anchors the composition’s crimson energy. The background ripples with smoke-like textures of red, black, and ashen gray, blending the figures into a storm of painterly motion. The scene evokes a mood of mystery and power, as though these witches are mid-conjuring beneath a burning sky.

In fact a false door, painted to left of tablinium, in house of local #Pompeii official C. Iulius Polybius w early style facade.
Like in recent discoveries in the city, owner was in process of upgrading 2C BC property, hence amphorae + heap of lime piled in the corner.
#Roman 🏺
A painted door, included in the layout of the tablinium for symmetry. It's actually plaster, showing four panels within a red and white doorframe. The four panels have the appearance of being on two doors, white with red borders bounded by darker outlines, and three circles on the section dividing upper and lower panels on each one. A heap of building material and some broken amphorae are shown to the left of the false door. A view showing the layout of the tablinium and the painted false door. The room has white painted walls with a red border at the top, a large entrance through the facing wall leading to other parts of the site. The painted false door is to the left of this, and an empty doorway is on the right - clearly intended to hold a 'real' door. Remains of an upper level are also evident, with five window openings in the wall over the doors/entrance.

Another post for #SciArtSeptember day 27:
A crinoid depicted by scientific artist Sarah Hall in my copy of Palæontology of New-York by her husband James Hall, published in 1847. Note the perfect little pentagons in the aboral cup; five-pointed radial symmetry is a characteristic of Echinoderms.
An illustration of a feathery crinoid fossil with very fine details. The stem is on the right and its feathery cap is drooping to the left. #SciArt 🦑

This black-and-white photograph captures a minimalist landscape featuring a gentle hill topped with five bare trees. The composition is balanced, with the trees aligned horizontally across the hill, creating a sense of symmetry and tranquility. The use of negative space in the sky and foreground emphasizes the trees and the hill, drawing attention to their shapes and textures. The soft gradient of the sky adds depth, while the absence of color enhances the timeless, serene mood of the scene. Diese Schwarz-Weiß-Fotografie zeigt eine minimalistische Landschaft mit einem sanften Hügel, auf dem fünf kahlen Bäumen stehen. Die Komposition ist ausgewogen, wobei die Bäume horizontal über den Hügel verteilt sind und ein Gefühl von Symmetrie und Ruhe vermitteln. Der Einsatz von Negativraum im Himmel und Vordergrund betont die Bäume und den Hügel und lenkt die Aufmerksamkeit auf ihre Formen und Texturen. Der sanfte Verlauf des Himmels verleiht der Szene Tiefe, während das Fehlen von Farbe die zeitlose, ruhige Stimmung verstärkt.

The whole concept of "five senses" is basically just more woo. I wouldn't be surprised to discover that, like Newton's colors of the rainbow, someone decided that "five" had the right alchemical symmetry.

The image captures an urban scene featuring two vintage candy vending machines mounted on a vibrant graffiti-covered wall. The machines, slightly weathered, display colorful candy packaging behind transparent slots. The graffiti background is a lively mix of abstract shapes, splashes of green, yellow, red, and white, with some tags and handprints. The composition uses the contrast between the structured, rectangular forms of the vending machines and the chaotic, organic graffiti, creating a dynamic visual tension. The lighting is natural, emphasizing the textures of both the machines and the wall. Das Bild zeigt eine städtische Szene mit zwei alten Süßigkeitenautomaten, die an einer mit Graffiti bedeckten Wand montiert sind. Die Automaten, leicht verwittert, präsentieren bunte Süßigkeitenverpackungen hinter durchsichtigen Fächern. Der Graffiti-Hintergrund besteht aus abstrakten Formen, Spritzern in Grün, Gelb, Rot und Weiß, sowie einigen Tags und Handabdrücken. Die Komposition nutzt den Kontrast zwischen den strukturierten, rechteckigen Formen der Automaten und dem chaotischen, organischen Graffiti, was eine dynamische visuelle Spannung erzeugt. Die Beleuchtung ist natürlich und betont die Texturen der Automaten und der Wand. The image shows five worn, earth-toned fabric pieces or garments hanging on a rough, textured wall. The fabrics appear aged, with colors ranging from mustard yellow to rust red and beige. The wall itself is uneven, with visible signs of wear and patina, adding a rustic, almost historical atmosphere. The composition is balanced, with the fabrics arranged in a way that draws the eye across the image. The lighting is soft and natural, emphasizing the textures of both the wall and the fabrics. Das Bild zeigt fünf abgenutzte, erdtonfarbene Stoffstücke oder Gewänder, die an einer rauen, strukturierten Wand hängen. Die Stoffe wirken gealtert, mit Farben von Senfgelb bis Rostrot und Beige. Die Wand selbst ist uneben, mit sichtbaren Spuren von Abnutzung und Patina, was eine rustikale, fast historische Atmosphäre schafft. Die Komposition ist ausgewogen, wobei die Anordnung der Stoffe den Blick über das Bild führt. Das Licht ist sanft und natürlich, was die Texturen von Wand und Stoffen betont. This black-and-white photograph captures a close-up of a weathered concrete post with a metal chain and latch. The chain, composed of interlocking oval links, hangs loosely, casting intricate shadows on the textured surface of the post. The background, softly blurred, reveals a vineyard with rows of grapevines, adding depth and context. The composition emphasizes contrast, texture, and the interplay of light and shadow, creating a sense of timelessness and rustic charm. Dieses Schwarz-Weiß-Foto zeigt eine Nahaufnahme eines verwitterten Betonpfahls mit einer Metallkette und einem Riegel. Die Kette, bestehend aus ineinandergreifenden ovalen Gliedern, hängt locker herab und wirft filigrane Schatten auf die strukturierte Oberfläche des Pfahls. Der unscharf gehaltene Hintergrund zeigt ein Weingut mit Reihen von Weinreben, was Tiefe und Kontext verleiht. Die Komposition betont Kontrast, Textur und das Spiel von Licht und Schatten, was eine zeitlose und ländliche Atmosphäre schafft. This black-and-white photograph captures a meticulously arranged vineyard in winter. The image showcases rows of pruned grapevines, creating a rhythmic, geometric pattern across the landscape. The composition emphasizes the repetition and symmetry of the vines, with a strong sense of depth achieved through the diagonal lines. The high contrast and sharp details highlight the texture of the vines and the ground, evoking a sense of tranquility and anticipation for the coming spring. Dieses Schwarz-Weiß-Foto zeigt einen akribisch angelegten Weinberg im Winter. Die Reihen der beschnittenen Weinreben erzeugen ein rhythmisches, geometrisches Muster über die Landschaft. Die Komposition betont die Wiederholung und Symmetrie der Reben, wobei durch die diagonalen Linien ein starker Tiefeneindruck entsteht. Der hohe Kontrast und die scharfen Details heben die Textur der Reben und des Bodens hervor und vermitteln eine Atmosphäre der Ruhe und Vorfreude auf den kommenden Frühling.
