One thing about this countdown that I have enjoyed is looking back through my Lightroom catalog. This photograph of a spider lily was taken before I had the notion I would write a book called Growing Patterns: Fibonacci Numbers in Nature. Today I counted the spokes going out from the central stem; there are 8, which is the 6th Fibonacci number. I didn’t expect the book to come today because it it Sunday, but I do have high hopes for the coming week.
