After researching my definition of pattern and precedent images i decided that the beehive or honeycomb was the most interesting pattern. I have always found it very interesting that the pattern is so perfectly repeated yet is made by these small insects. I also found it interesting that the bees themselves have a striped pattern on their body. A webpage, http://www.bioteams.com/2007/05/21/bees_and_pattern.html, quotes that 'Pattern recognition skills in bees are so advanced they can recognize human faces better than we can' clearly showing that pattern is such an important part of these insects and how they operate.
