For our 38th Photo Challenge we asked participants to seek out photogenic examples of repetition. As usual our endlessly creative correspondents delighted us with their fine and subtle interpretations of the challenge. While there was only a hair’s breadth between them, we decided that this issue’s winner had to be veteran Photo Challenger Roz Krugle’s humorous row of school kids’ feet. It would have been a very good picture if they’d all been wearing shoes, but the single pair of bare feet transformed the picture into a smile-inducing classic.

Winner: Bare necessities by Roz Krugle
Our first runner-up, Tony Graziani, submitted three very strong images. The one we liked best was the image of the massive apartment blocks. But we thought his image of tree trunks was very nearly as good and so we gave it an Honourable Mention.

Leigh Beer is another of our regular contributors, and like Tony, he sent us two good responses to the challenge as well. We picked his ‘Ribbon of Windows’ for our Second Runner-up and pinned an Honourable Mention on his image entitled ‘Reflection’.
