My entry to the Repetitive Pattern Scavenger Hunt.

From the same Skywalk where Tintin took her picture a few weeks ago.

PP Notes:
- A bit of cropping;
- Converted to B&W;
- Re-sized.

Enjoy, and let me know what you think!

Hi Pierre,

Looks great!
The repetition of the patterns with the B&W effect and natural lighiting, make the contrast more intense. Nice POV!
Well done!

Constantinos

Hello Pierre,

The repeats are fantastic!!! I love the combination of curved and straight lines. Very busy but very pleasing to look into. Excellent entry Pierre!

Love and Peace always
Kevin

I knew from the thumbnail this is the same place where Suzanne took her photo. Well, I must admit her photo is better but photos are totally different. I like the way you used arches to create nice repetitional composition very pleasent to an eye.
Great work Pierre, TFS!

Regards,
Robert

Bonjour Pierre

I like the striated tonal range of stripes & the marvellous curves & sharpness. Good abstract pov. Congratulations!

La répétition a des vertus pédagogiques, je dirais même hypnotisantes au vu de ta photo :)
Aïe mes yeux!!
Très réussi!
Nina

Got envy, have ya ?
Now I am confussed which one is better ?
Can you guys establish certain priorities between yourself just to prevent great confusion among us, poor trekkers.
You don't expect us of being able to choose a better one out of two, do you?
Excellent work.
Excellent technicality of it.

TZhe pictures are totaly different....defined by the approach of each of you. Hard to say which one is better, if it matters to decide something like this!
happy together shoting to you both!

I do do do do do ...
Simple plain picture; just fill up the frame with repetition; a new approach: anti-minimalism.
Thanks Pierre

Too many things are repeated on this photo. A good entry on your Scavenger Hunt. A nicely done B&W photo Pierre. This is too tiring to draw even on a computer!

Put two photographers in a single location and look what they come up with... I like the contrast between the two pictures, Pierre. Both have their strong points, and I think I'd find it impossible to name either one "the best".
Now I'm off... get seasick by looking at all those "repetitions" LOL.

Excellent shot Pierre, very kool looking with B&W colours, yes, I saw the one with Tintin, I like that one too, but this one give me a different view of it, nicely composed and the patterns just great! Well captured my friend, thanks for sharing

Fantastic!
U can rotate this photo on any way, and allways look's good.
:-)

Hi Pierre,

I thought I recognised this shape, "This is similar to Suzannes" but maybe the other side? I thought :)
An great shot Pierre, I like the B&W conversion as it really shows up the architecture very well. Excellent capture

John

Excellent repetition, and composition Pierre. Good one for the hunt. Nice and sharp too.

Wonderful repetitive series, and i love the BW, this photo just keeps pulling you straight into it. well done as alwasys...TFS james

Marvellous Pierre, love these repeated pattern shots, and this is one of the best.

Peter

Very good light. Steel construction seems quite in order in confusion :) Good composition and well taken.

Nice POV and composition Pierre - and very applicable. It appears very architechturally focused - your special eye. Sharp, good dof and very nicely done ... Sam
PS - Hope this isn't a competition you are having with Suzanne ?

Most beautiful shot!
I like too the geometrical composition.

Beautiful graphism and great title ! very good entry for the hunt. Pro work as always from you !

Marleen

You've made the most of the repetition here. It's a bit like an optical illusion. Good choice to go mono I think.

Good B/W tones, awesome contrast and extremely geometric composition. A joy to see your work as always Pierre. A belated Happy B'day!

Hi Pierre, beautiful B/N shot. Well done.

Great repetition and gorgeous tonal range.
Excellent light balance and nice frame.
Isn't this the same as in Suzannes "iPod" pic?

Great work Pierre, very nice indeed.

take care, Stef :))
