Description

The mirror image of this picture is ofcourse a well known symbol. I never thought about it in any other way till I saw it on a 2000 year old mosaic in ancient Rome. Strange how simple lines can get radical different meanings over time.

Wow! Excellent image! Looks like matchsticks. This design was/is also very popular in art in India - a quasireligious good luck symbol, I think.

Looks like a swastika to me. Sorry, can't like it; after seeing that in it, I can't see anything else.

Yes ancient symbol of the sun/life that was used in reverse to unleash dark forces in the war. They knew what they were doing. Superbly done.

I like this a lot. It's interesting to see the whole 'object', but I also think it would be good to zoom in - the area immediately to the left of centre draws my eye.
