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.

If you spend time with plants, yeah they arent that similar. But its an easy mistake for people with few plant ID skills to make hence the copious warnings in plant ID resources.

Still.. If you foraging for wild carrots, best case scenario you get a disappointing carrot, worst case, you die ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Yeah, I do not see the appeal at all. Unless something with a deadly lookalike is incredibly delicious, I don't see any value in foraging it.
