Forest Fractals
If you go out to look for them, fractals will materialise everywhere. Here we see an aerial view of an alpine forest. These conifers in Arunachal Pradesh grow to around 30 m., and as can be seen they display a striking symmetry when seen from afar. Under their canopy, of course, virtually every leaf, bark, seed and stone possesses its own unique symmetry, adding allure and mystique to forests that inspire poets to poetry, artists to art and scientists to enquiry.
