Outside Inspiration: Water, Courtesy of Mother Nature

Today’s post will be a little different, and short, mostly due to the uncertainty of my internet connection and the constant interruption and bit of bedlam we’re dealing with here. I live in Colorado, in a suburb east of Denver that got just bombarded by the monsoon rains yesterday. My home is on a high point in the neighborhood, so we are fine here, but getting in or out of my neighborhood is a serious and time-consuming challenge due to flooded streets closed off all around us. Of course the news makes it all seems quite dramatic, and people from all over are calling and texting. Us Coloradans, although not at all used to being flooded, are a hardy bunch, and deal with Mother Nature with patience. She tends to bring us mostly sunshine and mild weather, so we put up with a few eccentricities here and there.

But water is on our mind (and in our houses, and cars, and businesses…) so today, we’re just going to bow to mother nature’s beauty with a particularly pretty take on water and texture.

This would not be hard to duplicate in polymer. There’s a nice design break in the texture, too.

The site I was sent to with this image has a whole series of pretty amazing photos; most of them are water- and weather-focused, but primarily ones that are a bit mind-bending. Jump over to http://xaxor.com/photography/7168-beautiful-photos.html to see what I mean.
