The abstract

My get pushed partners challenge was - I had a look to your recent photos, and I would like to push you either towards "Full Abstraction" photography. This mean that we should not recognize the object/subject in the photo. Play with color, and shape, and possibly post-processing. But the important is that we should not recognize/guess what you have photographed.
Can you tell it is a tree. Abstract is just not my thing.

Very pretty - your use of color is awesome.

@vincent24 Here is my attempt

[Milanie]

Love the colors - and no - I didn't guess tree so you definitely met your challenge!

[Francoise]

what terrific and beautiful colors! (I first saw a mushroom cloud)

[Juan B.]

Very creative. For a moment I saw a flower. I'm sure you have achieved your challenge

[Taffy]

Wow -- so glad you posted the original and this. It's amazing to see how creatively you worked to move to full abstract.

[Vincent]

@joansmor hi Joan! Very nice abstract, i did not see the tree. I thought it was a lake with a forest and cloudy sky, i reall6 like 5he way you played with the colour. The result is very attractive.

[Suzanne]

I don't know how you did it but its a fab edit :)

[Sandi]

It should be your thing, very nice!

[Jennifer]

love the colours and effect, fav

[Stephanie]

The colours are just wonderful, fave!

[Angie]

I love this ! The colours are wonderful

[Poppy]

I can definitely tell it is not a tree. It is a technicolor rendering of a test bomb in the bikini islands, as one might see it while one’s optical nerves are being irradiated into oblivion. Well done!

[Mags ッ]

It’s a glorious sunrise ☀️

[Anne]

Hello Joan, seems like we are paired up for get pushed again this week! What would you think about taking a shot in which the main focus is hands? Any way that you like!

[Henri Russell]

Great, colorful abstract.

[Joanna kate]

Very colourful with the feeling of movement as well

[Joan Robillard]

@365anne I like as I have been meaning to try.

[Debbie]

Nailed the challenge Joan. Sensational bright vibrant colours. Sensorary overload.

[Tom]

beautiful abstract

[Ashley]

This photo is like candy for the eyes! A sweet place to stop and savor! Summer fun! Are you considering framing this one?

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I would not have seen a tree in this- maybe a lake reflecting trees along the shoreline, but not an individual tree. Excellent job!
