April, May... June?

Despite all my best intentions, it seems that once again three (or so) months have gone by with no significant blogging efforts from yours truly...

My bad...


Yep, that is my 'my bad' face. Ha!

Needless to say, things have been hectic. Personal busy (recovering from the great wedding, for a start), school busy (adjusting to a new subject this year and preparing for a new curriculum next year, not to mention extra mural craziness), everything busy. 

There has been time, mind you. Just not... headspace, bandwidth, whatever you want to call it. That thing which makes me want to spend sometime relaxing not by relaxing but by reflecting and/or creating.

So, here are some reflections, just to get myself back into the swing of things:


Cats know how to rest while staying alert. It's not either or, but both.



Plants grow towards what is good for them, and away from what is bad.



Clouds go where the wind takes them. They don't fight the inevitable.



Peace out, man.

Reverse Hourglass (and other fractals)



The last image has a name: Reverse Hourglass. The others are just images!


They were all made by me, a complete fractal novice, using the cutest (and free) little program called Apophysis. It's super adictive, so I'm sure more fractal posts will follow...you don't mind do you?


Yours in fractality,
JJR

Baby Tree - Big Tree


At the moment I am a Baby Tree. I still need support.


But one day I will be a BIG tree.

Room With a View



We're nearing the end of winter, and the pink flowers outside our window are finally giving up the fight for survival... soon they'll be reborn in a burst of colour.

Counting at the Seaside

I'm on holiday folks, so no hectic maths for a bit... instead I've been collecting pictures of numbers. Today I counted from 0 to 5 on and around the beautiful beach at Muizenburg.

 Hum...the usual problem with "counting" zero. Am I encroaching on hectic maths after all?


One clock-tower on Muizenburg station. Not one o'clock.


Two walking people (husband and father-in-law if you must know)


Can you spot the three?


Four beach huts...


Five (or is it six?) steps gone adrift...
