ABC Wednesday: Z is for zig zag

The first shot of a pedestrian bridge has very easy to spot zig zags.

The rest of the shots were taken at the NCSU arboretum and you may have to look a minute to spot the zig zags.

If you don't spot the letter z or zig zag patterns in some of these shots, that may mean your brain isn't as ziggy as mine is.

The shot above and below are of the lathe houses in the arboretum. All of these shots were taken in late summer several years ago.

By the way, when I say my brain is ziggy, I don't mean to imply I'm like the cartoon character Ziggy. I'm using ziggy as a made up word to imply that my brain rarely moves in a straight lines but instead it zig zags around.

    I like these pictures. Sometimes the creative path is not the straightest one, but that's the beauty of it.

    I like the way your ziggy brain works! That is a great illustration for a Z word.

    Interesting captures for 'Z'. Other than zebras and zeroes nothing else comes to my mind.
