Mice, Birds And Two Mirrors

Following my last post about symmetry and mirrors and patterns and kaleidoscopes.. well I couldn't have found a better post to follow it with! Found this on the today and tomorrow blog.

Mirrored Videos

I like patterns, and I like symmetry, so it's no surprise that I like it when videos of shapes are reflected into a kinda kaleidoscope video. Great. The first minute is the best, but then the music drops and the rest fits the music really well. Fave bit other than the start minute is the clouds.

Lee Mawdsley

Lee Mawdsley is a photographer based in East London. Anyone who has an eye for symmetry in photography gets my vote. As I've said before, what I enjoy in photography is highlighting beauty in something that the average viewer would simply dismiss as impossible to hold beauty.

What I like about this image in particular is the amount of 'individual living' happening in the photo. Thousands of homes each lived in in their own unique way, hundreds of cars going about their personal journey, two directions of train lines, going in and out of the city. And then in the distance in the haze of the city is probably Paris' second most famous tourist spot, Arc de Triumph, which itself must be viewed by a million people a day.
