The Wonders of Sphere in Singapore

I took these photographs when we travelled to Singapore in 2005. It was quite interesting to see how common the stone spheres were there.
An attempt at visualizing the Fourth Dimension: Take a point, stretch it into a line, curl it into a circle, twist it into a sphere, and punch through the sphere.” - by Albert Einstein, Nobel Prize Winnter in 1921, 1879-1955.
The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.” - by Albert Einstein, Nobel Prize Winnter in 1921, 1879-1955.

What we know about the sphere is that it is a perfectly symmetrical object in mathematical terms, and in non-mathematical terms, it is often referred to as a round ball. Round balls are very common in sports; however, as you will see below, they can also be used in artistic displays and structural applications.
Nature is an infinite sphere whose center is everywhere and whose circumference is nowhere” - by Blaise Pascal, French Mathematician, Philosopher and Physicist, 1623-1662.

Enjoy.
