Focus on: Curves Observed

The geometry of life.


Last week, March 14, was Pi Day, highlighting the Greek letter Pi (π)which stands for the ratio between the radius and diameter of a circle. 

 Today, we contemplate the curve, an important component of the circle, a shape, and a concept that is all over our lives, if we just stop and look. 

Sally Russick's Focus on Life, hosted on her blog, the Studio Sublime, suggests we "Observe the Curve."  Forgive me for being literal, but I saw these curves the day after we received our prompt.






And since it is our 33rd wedding anniversary I made a card. 

You never know what might be waiting around the next curve. Visit Sally's blog to see how others have interpreted this concept.

    I love your curves! I was hoping someone would do a road... but you did a creek, too. Wonderful! Reminds me of taking walks by myself as a kid.
