Repetition in the Garden

I love when I discover repeating elements. I discovered these at the Chicago Botanical Garden. The day was overcast so the lighting was special. Bits of shadow but no glaring shine. WOW!! Perfect for pictures!

The spheres on the posts on the right but assymetrical overall...my fav

Again, repeating spheres and a wall of trees with a brick vanishing point. Gotta love it!

  And then, the lone element with wonderful shadows and brick diagonals.

Oh, I love that kind of light too! And how it gently highlights the form of objects. Great repetition! Thanks for Exploring with a Camera this month.

I love these! What a beautiful garden! I love how the spheres lead my eye right into the garden!

isn't it great the way spherical objects are enhanced by straight lines... and repetition of course!

Love those spheres too! Love the dappled light over them. Great examples of repetition. :)
