There is always someone who wants to walk into my shot at the very moment I press the shutter :-))
Anyway, this is one of my fave buildings in Oxford to photograph. It is the Mathematical Institute named after Andrew Wiles the Oxford professor who proved Fermat's Last Theorem, one of history's most difficult mathematical problems. I would have probably proved the Theorem myself but Andrew beat me to it :-))
The tiling in front of the building is Penrose tiling, named after the mathematician Roger Penrose who invented it in the 1970s. Allegedly, no matter where you stand the pattern never repeats :-)

Roger Bennion club has replied to Esther clubRoger Bennion club has replied to Jaap van 't Veen clubSomehow though, it doesn't seem to be ruining your (otherwise) wonderful photo with all its cool, mathematically squiggly, leading lines. Even under these trying conditions you mange to turn out such brilliant work. Keep it up sir! :D
