I think this week finally got me out of my slump. I think I have two solid photos and this is the stronger one. I took this around the golden hour at a street a couple blocks from mine. I knew the light would be cool shining through the trees and create a cool effect and I think it actually really worked out. From there I just set up a camera and timer after setting the focus on my brother. In editing I just played with the colors and sunlight to make myself pop and also messed with the saturation as well. Lastly, I worked with Mr. Mulloy to copy and paste the layers over and over again inside the frame. Together, I think there are seven or eight copies of the original photo pasted in.
This photo perfectly describes my concentration. I am shooting outside the studio in a natural landscape and using color, surreal editing techniques and a prop. It will perfectly fit my other photos. One thing I have noticed is that I have used frames a lot this semester, so this will probably be my last time using one.

Repeating pattern #2
… then a castle!
I liked the contrast between the soft, billowing cow parsley and the solid walls of Warkworth Castle (even if the verticals are a bit off!)

Lots of repeating patterns on a cushion!

She will make an excellent mother so long as her kids also have a 5 second long memory and don't realize she is really just repeating the wording on the electrical shock warning sticker in a soothing voice.

Endlessly Repeating Twentieth-Century Modernism, Josiah McElheny's installation of mirrors and silver bottles at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.
A wide panoramic landscape of the Smoky Mountains under clear daylight.
Rolling, forested ridgelines extend across the entire frame, layered from foreground to distant background. The mountains are densely covered with deciduous forest showing early autumn coloration: a dominant mix of greens with patches of yellow and muted orange beginning to emerge. The repeating ridges create a rhythmic, wave-like pattern, each successive ridge appearing slightly bluer and softer due to atmospheric haze.
The foreground includes treetops with brighter, more saturated greens and yellows, providing depth and anchoring the scene.
The midground hills are richly textured, revealing the continuous canopy that characterizes the Smokies.
The background ridges are smoother and cooler in tone, fading gently into the horizon.
Above, a clear blue sky occupies a narrow band at the top of the panorama, clean and unobtrusive, emphasizing the horizontal sweep of the mountains.
Lighting is even and natural, likely late morning or early afternoon, with no harsh shadows—allowing detail across the entire landscape.
Overall, the image conveys scale, calm, and continuity, highlighting the Smoky Mountains’ signature layered ridges and expansive forest cover in transitional seasonal color.

I love the way a sunflower head is constructed of so many repeating florets - I could look at them for hours.
The hills to the south. Waiting for the warm son to get the photosynthesis going and sucking up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Sure there is plenty to work on! 61/365

Repeating patterns since inspiration has not returned :)
For car interiors my eos M with 8-15f4L is better. Better balance for shooting while driving without shake etc. etc. but I only have this with me so it'l have to do.
Picked up some large prints at the Photo supplies shop on the right looking out the windscreen.
It’s been satisfying to renovate this Victorian, Billcliff repeating back and find out how it works to make three images onto one, postcard-sized, negative. I first needed to find a way to attach it to a camera; in this case a Gandolfi half-plate. I had a suitable broken double dark slide and screwed it to the Billcliff back. Some light leaks had to be traced and fixed including replacing some felt light seals. To use, The glass screen is slid into position and the camera focussed.
Then the back is slid to position 1 where it locks into place and the first exposure made. The process is repeated focussing on a different subject each time - or - three images of the same thing can be made.

Back in Room 2, Bobby handed Whitney her citations, certain she felt bad enough that she would not be repeating any of her reckless behavior.
“We’ll be in touch about your community service,” Bobby said, handing Whitney her multiple citations, “and, Don, Happy Fourth of July. I know you love this holiday.”
“Used to!” Don said, ready to go home.

I found an old paperback booklet, yellowed by time titled: "The Civil War" hidden away on a bookshelf at my parent's house. It is a 5 x 7 booklet of just 65 pages that summarize the most significant aspects and notable events of that bloody war. It is a sort of primer or Cliff Notes that would come in handy for a young student of Civil War history. The booklet has a circular shaped emblem with the words "The Civil War Centennial Commission 1961 - 1965". Written by James I. Robertson Jr. in 1963 (coincidentally, the same year U.S. President John F. Kennedy was assassinated) and for sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. Price 40 cents.
Although this publication is nearly 60 years old it contains a few paragraphs that invoke eerily familiar thoughts about our current state of affairs. Here, I will quote the first chapter with emphasis on the last paragraph which I think sums up our current situation quite nicely.
Causes of The Civil War
Historians past and present disagree sharply over the major cause of the Civil War.
Some writers have viewed the struggle of the 1860's as a "war of rebellion" brought on by a "slavepower conspiracy." To them it was a conflict between Northern "humanity" and Southern "barbarism." James Ford Rhodes, who dealt more generously with the South than did many other Northern writers of his time, stated in 1913: "Of the American Civil War it may safely be asserted that there was a single cause, slavery."
Other historians, such as Charles A. Beard and Harold U. Faulkner, have argued that slavery was only the surface issue. The real cause, these men state, was "the economic forces let loose by the Industrial Revolution" then taking place in the North. These economic forces were strong, powerful, and "beating irresistibly upon a one-sided and rather static" Southern way of life. Therefore, the 1860's produced a "second American Revolution," fought between the "capitalists, laborers, and farmers of the North and West" on the one hand, and the "planting aristocracy of the South" on the other.
A third theory advanced by historians is that the threat to states' rights led to war. The conflict of the 1860's was thus a "War between the States." Many in this group believe that the U.S. Constitution of 1787 was but a compact, or agreement, between the independent states. Therefore, when a state did not like the policies of the central government, it had the right to withdraw or secede from this compact.
Still other writers believe "Southern nationalism" to have been the basic cause of the war. Southerners, they assert, had so strong a desire to preserve their particular way of life that they were willing to fight. This then became a struggle between rival sections whose differences could not be settled peacefully. The result was a "War for Southern Independence."
A recent group of historians known as "revisionists," rejects these earlier theories. Leader of the revisionist school was the late James G. Randall, who once stated: "If one word or phrase were selected to account for the war, that word would not be slavery, or economic grievances, or states rights, or diverse civilizations. It would have to be such a word as fanaticism." Another revisionist, Avery O. Craven, agrees. The Civil War, he wrote, resulted because the great mass of American people "permitted their short-sighted politicians, their over-zealous editors, and their pious reformers" to control public opinion and action. Primarily through the slavery issue, these radicals created more and more hatred between North and South. In the end, and as a result of these radicals, the differences between the sections, swelled by "a blundering generation," burst into war.

This repeating leaf pattern is from an autumn table cloth. I took it for the ODC (Our Daily Challenge) "All Over Pattern" challenge.
Because I like patterns so much, I decided to run the original image through my Silicon Mirror software to create a tessellation of golds and oranges. I trimmed that image into strips to frame the table cloth image and then added a gradient frame in Irfanview.
