my current top five photos are an interesting study in the number 2:
2 flowers
2 eyes
2 photos about leaves
2 black and whites (mostly)
2 people (both eye shots are of my wife)
2 lenses used
2 repeated challenge topics
2 locations (my kitchen and my in-laws house)
any interesting coincidences in your top 5?

I don't see the twos I see the one noticable swastika! :P
Ok here are my top five:
    
There isn't a thing similar between any of them that I can see.

| Yanko, other than the last one, I see a very strong similarity in the predominant use of earthtones :) |

I see a brown theme (not brown ribbon) but the color tone :)
EDIT TO ADD: Yeah - what she said :P

If you can see a similarity here, congratulations. I sure can't.
edit: they're all taken outside!

You like finding/using lines in your compositions? |

Actually, now that I think about it a little more, all 5 of those photos are made with what I consider to be exceptional light. It may not be as obvious with the fisheye shot, but that was late afternoon sun that made me stop to take some shots. |

Edit: 4 of them are personificationish? and one is my first entry ever?

uh. . . 4 of the 5 have water in them? 2 Sunsets. Other than that, not much in common. |

 - - - -
3 long exposures
3 shots with water
3 shots with architecture
3 with D50
2 shots of San Francisco
2 shots on Treasure Island
2 with D200
I dunno what else. My top two images I went back the next day and shot more to try and get it just right, I ended up using my third shot and my second shot I took from the first minutes at each location, lol. |

I am extremely reluctant to admit this, but there is a unshakable feeling that I tend towards gold/yellow tones in all five of these. it is actually quite amazing and obvious. Oh well. And two others in my top 10 are gold/yellow as well.....
 
And this is not intentional...these just happen to be the ones of my many entries that have found themelves at the top. Must ponder mineself....

Wow I really have no idea what the common factor is... Interesting.
edit: well, all were shot with L glass if that counts lol

They all have a brown theme....pratically the same hue in each....course that may just be me again.
EDIT: Didn't go down far enough.....whew...it's not just me!

mine are portraits, 3 of them are selfportraits.
3 are shot in my studio, 2 in another place
3 are in color, 2 in b/w
I think that's about it :) |

Hm... This is a very interesting thread. :-)
    
Two macros, two animals, and one me.
edit: If anyone can tell me anything similar for *all* of them, you get twenty points! LOL.

I see horizontal lines in the first four, and vertical lines in 2 and 5. |

Errrgh, I've always had trouble finding a pattern connecting my phtots together, and I still really don't think there is one. Oh well, I'll try...ahem! 3 of the 5 are a mono/duotone, 2 of them have patterns, 2 of them have kids in it, and 3 of them were submitted to challenges with over 375 paticipants. Yup, that's about as good as I can do, lol.

Hmm...a bit of a stretch, but: 2 plates, 2 filled test tubes, 2 ends of a splitting rope, 2 people, 2 empty rolls of toilet paper

All your photos have a tense relation between two colors. They are strong crisp images (and very good) due to this stress.
red - white
purple - white
black - white
(this one is probably the exception)
white - black
