Repeating Patterns
I’ve had little time to do any very interesting photography in the past couple of weeks. Still, my cameras have been coming out with me and I’ve been grabbing shots when I can. However, with the weather being what it is (I live in Seattle so no surprise – it’s been raining) and work being busy, my images have been mostly opportunistic. When things are like that, I often default to a handful of simple styles and look for images that fit into that mold. Examples of styles might be reflection shots, contrasting (or dare I say juxtaposing) subjects, unusual compositions, etc. Another example is “repeating patterns”. It’s fairly self explanatory – find a scene where the subject repeats its pattern through the image and you often have the making of something half decent. Here are two examples which were on a roll I just developed – again, nothing groundbreaking but make for good filler posts. Both shots are Olympus OM-4 + Zuiko glass on Fuji Neopan 100 Acros.



I really like the second one, with the trees. Great angle!
I much prefer informative articles like this to that high brow litaerture.
