 Three Nature Conservancy ties lying side by side. Each has an Escher like pattern of animals -- Swallows, Dusky Sharks, and Koala bears. Had some other shots of individual ties and other crops of multiple ties, but thought people would vote them down as just a picture of a tie. So I cropped this one square and went wild with the Hue/Sat adjustments to turn into a Pop image that will probably get panned for other reasons.

Hoping to best a 5.7674, which was my score in Patterns II -- the first challenge I ever entered around here.

I knew they were ties. I quite like the colours and patterns in this one.

Are these bolts of fabric? They are quite fun.
