Abstract Photography

Like abstract art, Abstract photography concentrates on shape, form, colour, pattern and texture. The viewer is often unable to see the whole object. The focus is often only a small part of it. Viewers of an abstract shot may only know the essence of the abstraction or understand it by what is implied. Normally the object or image will not be a literal view of the subject. The subject tends to come second to seeing…

  • Patterns.
  • Textures.
  • Angles.
  • Proximity (closeness and distance from the subject).
  • Crop (especially of segments or parts of the whole).
  • Colour variation.
  • Tonal variation.
  • Hard light rendering of the subject.
  • Soft light rendering of the subject.
  • Shape (2D).
  • Form (3D).
  • Curves.
  • Geometry.
  • Focus and depth of field.
  • Blur.
  • Expression of movement.

Well done! As you can see, as long as the image is less than around 3200Kb there is no need to resize it as it will be automatically resized for you. I have to manually resize most of mine because they were shot at an extremely high resolution and are just far too big to upload to ebay as they stand.

Resize by clicking on the full size menu, once you are in the choose a pic screen (after the tree 🙂 )

 

that gives you three more sizes to choose from. If you think it looks wrong once it has posted, you can always edit your post, option is in the menu that is top right on the post, clear the pic and try a different size. There is five minutes to edit a post.
