Saw a cool light pattern under a bridge on my morning walk
Y'all can stop tagging X.org now, they've already seen it lol.

Fr, thank you all for the massive (and unexpected) support on this! I just thought this random little shot was cool, and I glad everyone agreed.

@kainoa

I love the bottom of the x, it restates the top of the x,
The bottom is the rules that created the wave version redoubled.

Wave | Solid
_______________
Wave² | Wave

@kainoa very cool! And it's not always easy to capture that elusive coolness...
@kainoa i would guess there is an item that will aid you on your quest right at the base of the sunbeam there
@kainoa
Secret entrance to X-Men HQ
@kainoa @XOrgFoundation hey! I think this is the perfect X.org image 😀

@kainoa , I remember giving a coworker a ride home from work close to 40 years ago. He was an amatur photographer, and I just didn't understand the art of it. He explained to me in that short ride what he looked for, and pointed to some electrical wires overhead. I SAW it. Those wires were art. I don't see things like that until they are pointed out, but I saw it.

You just pulled that memory out for me, and thank you. I would have walked past that reflected light, but you saw it, and were able to show it to me.

@kainoa

@kainoa very cool! that's a single lightbeam and it's reflection on the water, tho, not two lightbeams...
not that a lighbeam is a real thing anyway...
@kainoa @docpop That’s the spot. 🏴‍☠️💰
@kainoa that is very cool!
thanks for sharing.
@kainoa spicy affine transform

@kainoa

Damn!

Can I show this to my media students?

@kainoa yeah...

Looks like some laminar flow welding nozzle being redirected from the surface...

@kainoa sunbeam and caustics! (thank you, @jamesgurney for teaching me the word!)

@kainoa

This would make a kickass wallpaper on someone's desktop.

@kainoa It's "The X Window System" or "The Window System called X" but never "X Windows".
@kainoa On no account tell Anthony Kiedis about it.
@kainoa Damn that's so cool
@kainoa This would make a rad TV station ident if animated. 👀
@kainoa in downtown NYC today

@kainoa

X marks the spot!

There be treasure!

@kainoa @mcc there are probably a tunnel hidden behind that wall leading to xavier's school for gifted students
@kainoa And now, I'll have to look up more fancy bridge underways, for material sourcing. Ooooh
@kainoa that's a good one. We get reflected ripple patterns on the ceiling of our boat, but nothing as startling as this.
Isn't this ScotRail?
@kainoa *90's X-Men cartoon intro quietly reverberates across the concrete*

@roytanck

I thought it was clever graffiti

@kainoa clearly “dig here” is indicated for those on a side quest.😁
@kainoa it looks like the Pokemon X logo 
@kainoa
So...what treasure did a pirate or leprechaun bury there? 🤯
@kainoa X marks the spot.
@tca @kainoa i come here to say that
