Nature's Patterns - the beauty in the details

Lots of communities are dedicated to nature's big pictures, the breathtaking vistas and scenic landscapes. Those are all great, but I find the details of the natural world to be just as much of a draw.

From ripples in sand, to whorls in bark, this community celebrates the beauty in the little patterns and textures of nature.

I was going to mention trypophobia but I saw the crosspost, so no need :).

Hah, yeah it's a weird thing. I find formations made by the bacteria beautiful, and simultaneously revolting.

Trypophobia is only triggered in my case with the really disgusting skin stuff, when it's in non-human things, I love these patterns.
