Abstract April

[Jasmine Jefferies]

Those of you who had a 365 last year will recognise the term "Abstract August". And I was thinking, why wait for half a year for it to come round again, when we could do it in April instead?!
So those of you who are stuck for ideas for your second/third/whatever year, or those who have just started their project; I'd love to see you all getting creative and imaginative with all things abstract!
You can post photos on this thread if you want. But you should tag all your photos with "abstract april" too!

Tag your photos with "abstract april" NOT "abstract-april" OR abstract-april.

and I was taking a break for a bit, but I always feel the pull for an abstrat and must also reach out to @aspada @deens @janmaki and @scooter

is it one word
or two words for the tag?

[Jani M]

cool, I'm in!

[Helge Erik Storheim]

I guess I took this one a few days too early then ;-)

[Lisa Pouncy]

Fab idea. I loved joining in with abstract august so I'll definitely be entering a few for this :o)

[Amy Evans]

this sounds fun! I'll try a few!

[Jasmine Jefferies]

@brumbe it's two words for the tag.

for those that dont know how to do multiple words as a single tag, put the two words in apostrophes. eg 'abstract april'

[scooter]

You know I am always up for an abstract!! I am in!

@jjefferies Thanks, I did not know how to do that for multiple words!

[scooter]

@brumbe Thanks Paula for tagging me!!! :)

[Jenn]

I'm in for a few!

[Paula x2 Brumbe]

@jjefferies thanks August was just one word so wanted to make sure I got it right

[Penny Milner]

I'll be in for a few too!

[Kate Klinck]

cool i am in for some too!

[Lisabell]

I’ll definitely be participating! I love abstract! I did the August challenge so I hope I can come up with some new ideas for this one!

[Kathryn Marshall]

I will post at least a few abstracts. I have been pulled to doing abstracts lately, even though I have been taking a lot of flower shots and photo club theme shots. I learned SO much from doing abstracts last August.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

I did a few abstracts last August. It really opened my eyes to abstract and now I love it, but I forget to do it! So I am in for some photos to be abstracts! I just need to get in the right mind set....

[Paula x2 Brumbe]

@espyetta @harley84 I forgot to tag you in the discussion.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@brumbe Thanks! I was all "eyes on the bugs" today,so I blew it on Day one of Abstract April, but I am going to be all about the abstracts tomorrow! Thanks! (well, I'll try...I am not too good at them!)

[Paula x2 Brumbe]

@espyetta you are better at them than you think. I have not made my mind work this way for quite a while so it may be a bit more of a challenge.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@brumbe I did a few in August....I think that may be it...but it will be a fun challenge!

[limpet365]

Thanks to @janmaki for the heads up on this thread... here is my (unplanned) first contribution to Abstract April! :)

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@brumbe I tagged my first abstract (not a good one, not very abstract, but I will do better tomorrow...hard to find abstract in nature and i am at the lake!) I tagged it "abstract-april" but went to see how that worked and there are only two pics in there, so I assume I made a mistake. But I read the thread and its say to do two words with hypen and quotes around it....so....just checking to see if I am putting them in right place.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@brumbe I fixed it. I think I did hyphen and quotes....

[Paula x2 Brumbe]

@espyetta I wanted to get it right since in august we used it as one word.

[Kate Klinck]

lol I can't seem to tag this correctly either... can someone clarify for me what exactly to type for the tag?

[Shanne]

@harley84 you need to put quote marks around it to get the two words together with a space. In your tag box you type "abstract april"

[Shanne]

I did this one deliberately because the A is for April list started with an abstract

[Dieter Tracey]

bad timing, my last two shots for March were abstracts :)

April 1 counts too I guess

[Mags ッ]

I'm in :)

[Kate Klinck]

@shanne Thank you!!! :o)

[Devrin Wimberley]

I love abstracts!

I'm actually running a little competition on my page for those who want to guess what my abstract is each day...there's still time to catch up to the leader...

Here is my fave April shot of mine so far...

[Mischell]

how can you put your abstract picture here? I put "abstract april" on my picture. Is there any other steps I need to do?

[iqscotland]

@cottoncandy

Go to the page with your photo on it. On the right hand side, under the tags, there's a box labelled "Share". Copy the line of code from the box and paste it into a new comment in the box here.
