This piece is an example of a rhythmic repetition that has been repeated so much without variance that it becomes a pattern. Though he has some variance in color, it is overall the same pattern, with the exact same repeating shapes.

This is a good example of progressive rhythm, the repetition of shapes/objects that progressively get smaller/larger. He does this with stacks of rocks, both moving them backwards in the photo and removing height from them.

This chronophotography piece is a wonderful example of movement, considering that it is movement. The fact that he showed movement through the photograph makes it much more interesting that a simple photograph of human form. It draws your interest, leads your eye, and makes the piece much more interesting. It also shows that one way to show movement is repetition.

This piece has an extreme amount of variety in it through the colors, shapes, line, ect. Even though there is so much variety it all seems to come together in an interesting piece. This is possibly because even though there is so much variety, there is slight repetition in the figures, as well as having a similar color palette (all bright colors) which gives it an overall unified feel.
This is another good example of having variety in a unified piece. Though all of the subjects are cakes, in order to create interest, he adds great variety between them as far as size, coloring, and a few other factors. This adds enough variety for the piece to be interesting, but it is still repetitive enough to be unified.

This is a good example of harmony. The repetition of the stones simple shape creates a clean, harmonious piece. The reflection of the rocks in the water also continue this.
This is another good example of harmony. Throughout the piece you have the repetition of smooth, circular shapes, as well as the general stone texture. This gives the piece a simplified feeling as well as being very unified.
