Thank you to Nada@njmom3 for hosting the last round and to all those who participated. There were so many wonderful abstracts posted this August. Special thanks to those who voted. Now begins the next challenge round (abstract-76).
What actually is an abstract?
Abstract photography, sometimes called non-objective, experimental or conceptual photography, is a means of depicting a visual image that does not have an immediate association with the object world and that has been created through the use of photographic equipment, processes or materials. An abstract photograph may isolate a fragment of a natural scene in order to remove its inherent context from the viewer, it may be purposely staged to create a seemingly unreal appearance from real objects, or it may involve the use of color, light, shadow, texture, shape and/or form to convey a feeling, sensation or impression. - Wikipedia.
Some tips that have been mentioned before may help you capture or create an interesting abstract:
Shoot the ordinary in an unusual way
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
Tweets ahoy!
