    **ATTRIBUTES**

    * ``apertures`` (dict): The keys are names/identifiers of each aperture.
      The values are dictionaries key/value pairs which describe the aperture. The
      type key is always present and the rest depend on the key:

    +-----------+-----------------------------------+
    | Key       | Value                             |
    +===========+===================================+
    | type      | (str) "C", "R", "O", "P", or "AP" |
    +-----------+-----------------------------------+
    | others    | Depend on ``type``                |
    +-----------+-----------------------------------+

    * ``aperture_macros`` (dictionary): Are predefined geometrical structures
      that can be instanciated with different parameters in an aperture
      definition. See ``apertures`` above. The key is the name of the macro,
      and the macro itself, the value, is a ``Aperture_Macro`` object.

    * ``flash_geometry`` (list): List of (Shapely) geometric object resulting
      from ``flashes``. These are generated from ``flashes`` in ``do_flashes()``.

    * ``buffered_paths`` (list): List of (Shapely) polygons resulting from
      *buffering* (or thickening) the ``paths`` with the aperture. These are
      generated from ``paths`` in ``buffer_paths()``.

    **USAGE**::
