patterns & the splitting sea

In this coming week's torah portion, Beshalach, we read of the Jew's journey from Egypt, particularly, about the splitting of the Red sea. The following is a photo essay I've composed exploring repetitious patterns in the built world.
What's the connection with the red sea? Well, I always imagined the sea (probably from pictures in children's torah books) as having these endlessly long walls of water. Perhaps these patterns in nature reflect those walls. Perhaps not.

What is the significance of patterns and redundancy in our own lives?

Enjoy!
