Peace Valley Park, No. 2, Designs and Patterns

Designs and patterns in nature often fascinate me such as in the following photos from Peace Valley Park near Doylestown, Pennsylvania. In the past, I have used some of these types of designs as background images and patterns for web pages.


I love the patterns in tree bark and in this particular photo the morning sun shining brightly on the bark just magnifies the beauty.


Fungae on trees present a combination of curved patterns and slightly varying color contrasts.


This is actually the underside view of a fallen down tree stump. But I could actually imagine this as an upside down view of a topographical map for a selected terrain. Or it could also be a view inside a cave.


Sometimes the designs of above ground tree roots resemble flowing rivulets curving whichever way nature leads.
