Overlapping frames due to camera problem turns out to be great juxtaposing of many spring elements, cherry blossom, mustard flowers, green new grass, into impressionism paintings.

An overview of a piece of Sue's called "Overlapping communities" constructed out of ort balls.
"Ort" is a very old word that once meant a scrap or remainder of food from a meal. It is now used by needle artists to refer to the little scraps of thread that end up getting clipped off. Sue has been collecting these from needle artists all around the country, often through my mother, who regularly attends national and regional seminars.
In this piece she ties the little orts together to make a longer thread, and then uses that to create brightly colored "balls of twine". Each ort ball is from a different set of orts, and so represents a person, or possibly even the remainders from a single project from a person.

John Martin and I have been running seminars together, in North Queensland, in Brisbane, Sydney and Tasmania, during November and December 2010. Our focus: skills and values among councillors and managers negotiating their overlapping responsibilities in local government.
We're standing in front of one of the many films we've made in which practitioners, Mayors and CEOs (in Australia) and Leaders and CEOs in UK, discuss their working relationships.

Penn Quarter is a neighborhood in the East End of Downtown Washington, D.C. north of Pennsylvania Avenue, NW. Its boundaries are not well established, but they appear to extend along F Street NW from 5th to 10th Streets, and approximately H Street on the north where Penn Quarter abuts or partially overlaps with Chinatown. Penn Quarter is southeast of the Metro Center shopping district. Penn Quarter has been rejuvenated over the past several decades, stimulated first by the Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation (PADC) and later, following the recession in the 1990s, by the Verizon Center, a sports, concert and event arena that opened nearby at 7th and F streets in 1997 as the MCI Center. Penn Quarter now boasts a variety of entertainment and commercial establishments including museums, theaters, restaurants, bars, and contemporary art galleries. The area is also home to a popular farmers market and several food, wine, art, and culture focused festivals.
Penn Quarter's initial growth occurred under the auspices of the Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation whose Pennsylvania Avenue Plan called for a mixed-use neighborhood. It was to include residences, offices, theaters and other cultural venues, retail, hotels, and restaurants in both new and renovated buildings framing new parks and plazas. Revitalization started with a number of developments west of the FBI Building to 15th Street, most significantly the renovation of what today is the Willard Intercontinental Hotel, and the creation of new parks and plazas, including Pershing Park, Freedom Plaza, and the Navy Memorial. Market Square, The Pennsylvania, and the former flagship store of Lansburgh's department store on 7th Street were at the forefront of the revitalization efforts east of the FBI Building beginning in the mid-1980s. The nearby Verizon Center, which opened in 1997, stimulated the revitalization of adjacent blocks to the north and east and the Penn Quarter neighborhood to the south.
Penn Quarter is home to many restaurants, cultural, and entertainment venues in Washington, D.C. On Thursday afternoons in spring, summer, and fall, the FRESHFARM Penn Quarter farmers market is open on 8th Street, just south of E Street. The Newseum is located at the intersection of 6th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, NW. The building also includes offices and television studio space, The Source restaurant by Wolfgang Puck, and the Newseum Residences, an apartment rental community. The neighborhood is served by a variety of recreational and entertainment facilities including seven theaters, Lucky Strike bowling and several exercise clubs. Other neighborhood amenities include several coffee shops and a teahouse / restaurant on 8th Street; three salons with day spas; Penn Quarter Sports Tavern; the nearby Landmark E Street Cinema, which screens independent films; Regal Theater; and shops selling clothing, jewelry, ice cream, and books, among other things. Over the past thirty years the neighborhood has transformed from a sleepy, nondescript part of downtown into a vibrant 24-hour residential and commercial community.

A musing variation of some previously posted works. My weakness toward this techinque lays in the immensity of number of combinations possible to permutate a base pattern which looks like a regular square tile.
Interesting consequences of camera malfunction.

When I went out to find repetition I had a splitting headache and could not stop seeing repetition everywhere. This became VERY overwhelming so as you can tell I took most of my pictures zoomed in with little context. The idea was to shoot building glass but I became fascinated when a building was behind another but it looked like they were overlapping. I took many images of buildings similar to this, some brick over lapping metal and glass, every building type crossing over another building type. I finally came across two buildings that were similar but very different. They were both made of metal and glass so I walked to a place where the one was over lapping the other and snapped away. The patterns on both are very natural but I feel are dull when alone. However when one is behind the other these lines become more interesting. I really like how I was able to have multiple buildings in the same shot to give the viewer more to look at. The patterns on both were very cool so having one overlap the other was destined for success.
