Amazing Photographs of Fractals in Nature


cover

Nature never ceases to amaze us… every day we come across something new that makes us appreciate the incredible design of this planet. Most of these 29 patterns are part of a group called “fractals.” You can find them across all sorts of natural phenomena, and you’ve probably held one in your hands before. They’re made from a single shape repeating itself over and over again. Zoom in on a smaller part, and it looks just like the wider view. They play out in spectacular ways throughout nature, and the results are seriously hypnotizing.
