These are great - they actually look like aerial shots of a coastline! Beautiful.
I like your quote, too. I liked it even better when I discovered that Hooke was a very small (in height) man, and had accused Newton of plagiarising his work. Newton's response being that if he did copy someone elses work, it wouldn't have been Hooke's work as he was a "little man"! Great put down!
I hope you don't mind me asking but what exactly is the image? A shot of a painting? Carpet pattern? I like the colors but bugs me not knowing what I am looking at.
