CBBH Photo Challenge: REPETITION
Repetition, replication, reproduction, or in this case reappearance of the same subject throughout the picture.
I’m giving you something round, used, dirty and rolling, heaped up in the backyard of a local tyre repair shop.
Have a stroll with me to a less posh part of my neighbourhood while listening to John Lennon’s “Watching the wheels”.
This post is a response to Marianne’s CBBH photo challenge: repetition.
This month I would like to introduce to you two special bloggers that I will never nominate for Inspiring Blogger Award (more attentive readers of my blog are familiar with my views on nominations/awards), but who are nevertheless a constant source of inspiration to me: Bashar from 2 rivers photos , and Marion from Figments of a DuTchess .
Bashar’s way of making the most mundane subjects look glamorous never ceases to surprise me, and Marion with her love of words, and quest for beauty makes my WordPress experience so much more enjoyable.
Check them out. I’m sure you’ll find them inspiring too.

Fantastic random repetition here, Paula. Does the pile of tyres ever get smaller or does it just grow and grow?

That certainly is repetitive, great entry for the theme. When you told me your photo for this months theme was going to be a little different from your usual subject matter, you weren’t kidding.
