Repetition - not in nature #5

K from Toronto took these photos.

"Some examples of repetition found in St. John's, Newfoundland."

Whatever these structures are, they are wonderful. They look like sails on a boat.

What a unique and colourful mailbox.

St. John's is hilly but it didn't stop people from building housing. Even though they are different colours, all the windows are framed in white.

Another look at the wonderful houses with white framed windows.

Repetition - not in nature #4


M in Toronto shot these.
Old, weathered brick.

With all the stucco being used in new housing and in renovations of older houses, I wonder if bricklaying will be a dying profession?

Repetition - not in nature #3

This is truly an international group. On a recent trip to Brussels, A found a few photos demonstrating Repetition.
2 pictures from Brussels. This first pic is from a street near the centre - repetitive housing all down the street.

"From le grande place (the centre of the city, "the big place"), statues in the buildings that surround le grande place."

You can view the Grand Place here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Brussels_floral_carpet_B.jpg The photo above is the building on the left in the link.

Repetition - not in nature #2

In case any of you wanted to see what a mine was like, here's a little peek.
Repetition in  the Concentrate Filter

Repetition in the Chemical Pumps

Flotation Motors

Sample Buckets

Electrical Panel

New Electrical Panel

Now we all know a bit more about the workings of a mine. Loads of repeats. These were all taken by L in BC. It's amazing where you can find repeated items. You just have to look.

Repetition - not in nature #1

First up is D since it was her turn to choose a theme. It was while shopping that the word repetition came up.


This is the photo that started it all. All those lines repeated.

More lines repeated over and over.

Rows of magazines.

Products arranged oh so neatly on a shelf.
