Detail showing the inner part of a cross-section through a red cabbage, revealing a beautiful spiral. The thickened veins themselves form a Fibonacci spiral pattern; the flat surfaces of the leaves are crumpled to form almost a fractal pattern of wandering between the veins.
This image is a detail of a background showing a large-scale image of the whole cross-section of the Red Cabbage.
