    Briefly Symmetrical — Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #116

    Hi All 👋 My entry for this weeks challenge, set by Patti: Symmetry.

    The board, as well, is symmetrical when viewed on the diagonal axis.

    Dice sat a certain way are symmetrical on two faces.

    In architecture.

    Charles Rennie Mackintosh uses symmetry extensively in the interior of House for an Art Lover.

    Vertical & spherical symmetry in Kibble Palace.

    Some horizontal symmetry.

    …and finally, a bit of floral symmetry from an Iris & some orchids.
