Abstract 64 is underway!

April 28th, 2022
Warmest thanks to @monikozi for hosting the abstract 63 challenge, and to everyone who voted for my amaryllis petal close-up. Winning was an unexpected and pleasant surprise! So now we are on to abstract 64.

This challenge is all about seeing abstract in the real world. Don’t worry about getting it right. Abstract photography should be a place of complete freedom. And this is why the most important "quality" for abstract photography is just your imagination and creativity!

So how do you create an abstract image and make really amazing abstracts? Here are some tips:

Shoot the ordinary.
Choose strong shapes.
Get up close.
Use color to grab attention.
Seek out texture.
Look for repeating patterns.
Use lines and curves.
Photograph reflections.
Shoot through another object.
Capture motion.
Go macro.
