Abstract #1

Get Pushed Challenge #598
My partner challenged me to do folded paper macro abstracts. This was difficult for me because I didn't have a lot of equipment to do them. I had thought about going to the stores to find them, but you know how the stores are now. I can't find anything. And I didn't have the time to order anything online. Anyway I cobbled together enough to take a stab at this.

@kali66 Thank you for the challenge. I will start looking for more equipment. The light I used got VERY hot! Probably not the best thing to use with paper. I did have fun with this. And hopefully when I get some better light I'll try it again.

@joemuli Thanks Joe.
@wakelys Thank you Sue.

[Mona]

Like this one too, but the other one really touched me.

[katy]

This one turned out nicely as well, but like @mona65 I think I prefer the other one

[Margaret Brown]

It turned out nicely

Hi Kathy, I’m your partner for this week’s Get Pushed Challenge. Love what you did with the folded paper macro abstract - glad you didn’t challenge me to this! Looking through your work, I can tell you’re an experienced photographer. I’ll leave the subject open, but challenge you to experiment with double exposure. Enjoy!

This is fabulous I had to look at it for a while to see the paper.
Thanks so much for your comment yesterday. We all miss Chief, he was our friend and protector for over a decade.

[Taffy]

Nicely done! Good resulting abstract.

[Granagringa]

I really like this...fav for me...doesn't look as if you need any more equipment!!!

[haskar]

Love it. Well done.

[kali]

i like the colours that have appeared

[Kathy A]

Fabulous!

[Shutterbug]

I love how you did this. I think the tones and shadows and the interesting shape are perfect.

[Delwyn Barnett]

That's cool. Nice colour.

[Wylie]

pink lightening :)

[Pyrrhula]

Beautful abstract.

[Petespost]

Love how you managed the shadows and the artistic effects Kathy

[CC Folk]

Well done. You did it!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Both of these images are really great- so artistic and the soft color contrasted to the fold of the paper is very appealing to the eye.

@mona65 Thank you Mona.
@grammyn Thank you Katy.
@craftymeg Thanks Meg.
@walksnaplove Thank you for your feedback and for the challenge. I'll give it my best. Do you care if the double exposure is done in post-processing? My "real" camera doesn't have the capability.
@corinnec Thank you for your feedback on the photo. You're welcome about Chief. Hard to lose one's pet.
@taffy Thank you Taffy.
@granagringa Thank you. I'm working with scabbled together equipment. This time it did work and I'm glad. It was too cold to get out to the store(s) to hunt up what I wanted.
@haskar Thank you Hannah.
@kali66 Thank you Kali.
@kjarn Thanks Kathy.
@shutterbug49 Thank you Debbie. A little slide of the contrast, shadows and highlights I think.
