Inspiration in nature

Morning sun - photo © 2010 Benoit Philippe

“There is no designer more gifted, brilliant, and inspiring than Mother Nature. Look at the patterns of branches reaching into the sky, check out the color combinations in the fall, take note of how many shades of green there are in a single tree, study the sleek lines in a pigeon or a falcon.”

Steve Gordon, Jr, RDQLUS

Carmen,

I shot this photo at the top of Lawns, in Old Town, Swindon (UK). It was early morning and I just used my mobile phone.

Regards,

Benoit
