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.

pimpy, can the next theme be "rust rustic and decay"?


I don't pick the themes, the post with the most kudos in this challenge will choose next weeks challenge.

 

We had a RUST challenge (chosen by a bloke) and it was definitely one of the better ones. The entries were amazing and so many people participated in it.
