I am a fan of such spontaneous pattern(ing)s where the flow of existence becomes visible. \u201cPattern(ing)s\u201d to remind us that it is a pattern in the process of being formed, not ever a finished pattern.

Singing the same bar when the music has moved on to the next. That, right there, is the source of much suffering. And the blessing of photography. If you need to memorialize a passing pattern, take a photo and move on. Or that\u2019s what I say. Sony a6700. Sigma 16-300 Contemporary at 86mm equivalent field of view.
