It's very exciting to have the honour of hosting this new ETSOOI challenge. I would like to send a big "Thank You" to Suzanne @suzanne234 for hosting the last challenge, and to all of you who entered /voted in the last challenge.
I have chosen the concept of Repetition as the concept for ETSOOI-95.
By repeating a certain size, or shape, or colour in an image it is possible to add interest and depth to the overall result.
Here are a couple of internet sites which may give you some ideas:
And remember:
ETSOOI is an acronym started by MaryBeth @espyetta. It stands for EDITING THE SORRY-NESS OUT OF IT which basically means editing your picture in any way you like. So you can help your repetition along in any way you fancy!!
If you are new to editing/processing here are some great tools to use besides photoshop:
Snapseed
PicsArt
Pencil Sketch Free
Camera360
Deep Art Effects
You can use more than one program/app per image. This challenge is very relaxed so just have a play around with your picture and see what you can create. "

@suzanne234Hi Suzanne- I'm so pleased to see your comment - it was a bit daunting trying to come up with a new theme. I'll look forward to seeing what you create!! Cheers Rob
Please feel free to post your images here - it helps keep the thread alive. Here's another format that may fit the bill - repetitions of a theme. This one was fun to make....
@suzanne234 Thanks for tagging this - it's a great entry! And the dog is just a big sook - loves people but doesn't like other dogs. We love her to pieces!
This is just another possibility for repetitions ( mainly to keep the thread alive!!) If you like playing with your editing program this challenge is for you.....
@stimuloog Hi Marloes - thank you so much for posting this here - it's good to keep the thread alive. So many repetitions!! - just perfect for the theme. I like your POV and I like the abstract feel. Cheers Rob
Just to keep the thread alive ( and to selfishly have a bit of fun myself!) It seems you can make your own repetitions by overlaying semi-transparencies. This is not a very good example and I don't much like the colours that I ended up using! but it was a good trial to try. Hopefully trial and error with the original choice and the processing could give a better end result! The dam had a couple of dead sticks in the front of the image - repetition produced this end result:
@ginaanderson Hi Gina - thanks so much for posting this here and for entering it in the challenge. It's very well done and it certainly fits the theme as we are playing with it! And it's so much fun! Thanks again - cheers Rob
The repetitions of nature
I'm trying to post at the suggestion of Caterina. Not sure if this will work.
