Default Speed Challenge #60 Repeat that, please.

Here's a picture that seemed like a good idea at the time, but.... The challenge is to use it, or bits of it, to create a repeating pattern. Manipulate it in any way whatsoever--just so it's part of the end product, and the end product is a pattern.

Unlimited entries; deadline will be Sunday evening; have fun!

Good start, Russell. The first has kind of an airy, windy feel; the rising column is really nice. I like the intricate weave in the second, with the enclosing curves and the dynamic vertical lines.

Ok - a quick effort for me. Been a while since I've had an entry, so apologies for missing a few .

I made a copy of the image, flipped it horizontally and put the two togther, then copied and flipped that image vertically and joined it to the previous image, then did a watery overlay on the bottom half. Hopefully that makes sense!

I like the effect. It's more a reflection than a pattern, but it sure looks good.

Yeah, I can't resist twisting the rules a little... There are 4 copies of the original image on display though .

Rense, i can't decide if its a pattern or not--it's certainly a rhythm, and definitely a cool image.

DC, i'm pretty sure that IS a pattern, and it has a lot of wow.

You're all doing great things with this one. Keep it up!

For me it is a pattern, although not on the plane as the other pictures, but a pattern in 3D by looking from front to the back.

Okay, you all win. All of these are excellent work and show some really creative thinking. Thanks to all of you for submitting.

But, i was taken with the intricate, woven-wicker look of Russell's second image, so Focusing on Florida will lead us to Challenge 61. Congratulations!
