What's that? Well, pattern pictures
are hard to describe because each one
is different. but the accompanying
photograph provides as good an eX-
ample as you could ask for Generally
a pattern picture is one in which
an otherwise insignificant subject
acquires interest from the shadow
or reflections it casts, the marks 1t
makes, or the pattern it describes in
coming or going or in just being.
You can see from the photograph
that as snapshot of a speedboat this
would be the world S worst. But it isn't
a snapshot of speedboat - it's
perfectly swell picture of the results

or effects of a speedboat' turning,
shot against the light with an exposure
of 100 of a second at { So.
That is what is meant by a pattern
picture. And the world is full of them
for the photographer who will but
open his eyes and look around. The
best way to get inspiration for this
sort of thing is to pick up any camera
magazine or Photographic annual and
thumb over the pages. Meanwhile,
perhaps l can thumb through some of
my own prints and offer brief deScrlp-
tlons that will start you thinking
along those lines.
Here, for example, is a nice shot

at the beach showing a continuous
repetition of wind marks on a sand
dune Everybody snaps this kind of
shot sooner or later - as well as the
blobs of foam at the tide mark - but
both are still exceptionally good pat
tern pictures.
Here is another of a tuft of wlry
beach grass, showing a semicircle
around the base drawn by the longest
blade under the power of swirllng
winds.
A lovely shot shows layer upon
layer of ripples along the shore of a
lake, back-lighted in weird contrasts
by setting sun.
Here's one showing the suns rays
streaming through the trees on a
wooded path; another with the sun
shining through a cathedral window;
a third with the rays pouring down
between the ties of an elevated rail-
road

One could go on indefinitely naming
possibilities for pattern shots, yet you
might never encounter any of those
specific things in your travels. It's a
certainty, however, that if you keep
your Photographic eye peeled you will
run into other subjects in this same
category, which will bring out the
"Oh's" and "Ah's" when the visitors
come to see them in the album.
They are the kind of things tk4l,
when you see them, make a fellow
mighty glad he brought his camera
along. So when you're at a loss for
something at which to aim your
camera, look for pattern pictures!
