Pine Cone on a Table Cloth

Pine Cone

This seems crazy when I look at it now, but for some reason last year, I took pictures of pine cones and pineapples on a red, white, and blue tablecloth. The photographs in the book show the pinecone in the grass and the pineapple against a black cloth.

My copy of Growing Patterns: Fibonacci Numbers in Nature did not come today, but I got other good news. The Mississippi Arts Commission funded my minigrant application for marketing materials for Growing Patterns. Thank you, Mississippi Arts Commission! Your funding will help me publicize my book and turn a whole new generation of readers on to the fascinating ways math and nature are intertwined.
