Ailsa at Where’s My Backpack? has an interesting theme this week: Multiples.
I am drawn to repeating patterns and have found a number in my portfolio. I remember being fascinated with Escher in my childhood- an influence, perhaps?
I hope you enjoy these photos of multiples from around the world. Please click on the photos for a larger slideshow.

Stunning photos, are shucking gloves something to do with oyster shucking?

Thank you, Sas! Yes, that photo was taken at Hog Island Oyster Co. Oysters are sharp so shucking gloves are essential. Appreciate your comment!

I remember my Dad having a go at shucking oysters in France once. He tried for about 30 minutes to get one open until a French man took pity on him and did it for him.

Ha! Funny memory. Here in SC, I always hope that someone will take pity on my at an oyster roast. Love to eat them but not shuck them! 🙂

That’s a perfect example of an idea that could be included in a themes book of your photos! Connections, patterns, similarities — the idea that everything beautiful is somehow connected.
I had such a wonderful time with you. Thanks so much for everything. It feels really good to be in touch again.
NYC is so exciting. MOMA yesterday, the Met and Mormon today.
