Symmetry


...
Two trees, two signs, two men.


Elements of a balanced scene.



Symmetrical compositions can be dull or mannered, but symmetry can also enliven an everyday scene.

  1. Oh that fearful symmetry, it is a boon/bane parameter. I like what you did there. An alternate symm: note the fearful asymmetry of the eyes of this sumi-e tigger

  2. Dear Lord,

    Have we been communing with Old William recently? Tiger Tiger up all night, Burning bright the lights? Etc. On Parametrics, I had a manual on that once. Seemed to be about applying tourniquets and resuscitating waterlogged people.
