symmetry is beautiful

my immediate impression is: pretty.  the radial pattern is simple and pretty, something a kid would do at a fair or as part of a simple science demonstration.  But then the commentary makes me wonder, intellectually, what am i looking at?  What chemical reactions are behind the pattern, accounting for it? What can we learn from the different colors, the different positionings of closer to or farther from the center?
