Wavelength

Posted by Alfredo J. Martiz J. (Panama City, Panama) on 11 June 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

In physics, wavelength is the distance between repeating units of a propagating wave of a given frequency. It is commonly designated by the Greek letter lambda (λ). Examples of wave-like phenonomena are light, water waves, and sound waves.

Wow! I would have never thought of it being in a McDonald's! It looks like a pic from an art gallery. It's so simple, but at the same time magnifique! It kind of reminds me of the good old days in highschool (lambda). I don't know why, but it also reminds me of haiku(?).
El patrón de las líneas: tan sutil, tan suave. Un verdadero placer para la vista.

@paperdoll: Thank you very much Paperdoll, I was also surprised to see this inside a McDonald's, you can imagine the reaction of people when I took my camera and started shooting, everyone thinking what is this guy doing why is he taking photos; I made 3 photos and then a kind woman started looking the wall and I let her see the photos and she smiled, =)

Jennifer Radio from Statesville,

This blows my mind. You found that on a wall? I think your definition of a wave blew me off. I'm not that advanced, haha. But nonetheless, this is an absolutely captivating image.
