In university I had an Art History Professor whose catchphrase was Repetition of Motif with Variation. It came to the point where we kept score of the number of times he said it in a class. I think the highest was 43.

Christian, you have such a strong visual style that it almost seems pointless to comment. You know exactly what you're doing, and I have a feeling you accomplish what you set out to do, voting be damned. Which of course makes you the perfect Team Sucker. :)
Now, for me, I think I would've cropped this so the top was just above the white buoy on the right. That would make the repetitive themes clearer to me. Heck, go reshoot it for the upside down challenge!
Many of your shots are very dark on my calibrated CRT. I wonder whether that's what you want or our monitors are just different?
