Fabric Pattern #11

A relatively mild pattern in the carpet at a DC hotel.

Vaguely suggests square floor tiles,

but...

a kind of ominous repitition

of goats' heads.

Fabric Pattern #6

Y'all can draw your own conclusions.

I like the colors,

and the way the pattern of the colors

in the weave

creates subtle illusions

of depth

and motion.

Fabric Pattern #3

Detail from the carpet inside one of the elevators

at a hotel in Garden Grove, California.

Nice color combinations,

and it manages to achieve a bit of a 3D effect,

or an optical illusion.

I almost tripped on it

cuz I thought it was sticking up

out of the floor...  :8-D

although if you look at it another way

it looks like you could fall down into it

like it is a tube that is receding into the distance below.

Brighten the Corner

It's just a tabletop and a carpet pattern;

but the warm tones, the size differential, and the geometric lines grab the attention.

Well, at least they grabbed my attention;

hence this photograph.
