Plenty of geometry in a pineapple

Tokyo, Japan, May 2023

Geometry galore – a tessellating pattern of hexagons on the skin, all arranged in Fibonacci spirals, while the mathematical proportion of the fruitlets isthe Golden Mean. Plus, the pineapple also has a mathematical formula called the Pineapple Theorem, which shows the relationship between a positive real number and its given factor. How much more can you expect from a fruit?

Now over to all of you. Do come and join us in our Saturday six-word musings.

I’ll admit that many of us openly break the numeric rule and share far more words (all excellent of course!) so the key rule is to have a title of six words – and then create around that the post that you desire! Perhaps in bunches of 6 words if you’re feeling inspired.

To join the challenge, please put a link in your post to the URL of this post. Then come back here and leave us a comment. If you have any problems with linking, just put your own URL into the comment. And do feel free to socialise digitally with the hashtags #SixWordSaturday and #6WS. You’ll find me on Instagram @travel_travel_with_intent and @dsmythphoto
