Lead Shot - Pierced Blue Triangle

Nikon D3000, 55-200mm lens, 100 ISO. I am on students change in Finland and my number family's home has actually a lot of unusual sides on it therefore I attempted to find some that looked abstract.

Evening Combat

Canon EOS 7D, 1/20, F/5.0, Canon 50mm 1/8 lens, ISO: 800. Well, we now have an old English sheep dog just who loves to go external and roll around when you look at the lawn. Because so many of us know summer is flea period therefore we bought a flea killer to capture all ones he brings indoors. Through the night we leave it on when sleeping and noticed the scene through the top had been quite sweet.

Circlular Sphere

Nikon D5000, AF-S 18-105 VR, 1/30 s, 105 mm, f/16, ISO 200. It really is a rotating ring. Neon lights in a-room made ripple effect. I got the concept whenever my girlfriend ended up being playing with her ring. We shot it first at a dinner to exhibit my pal that I am able to make good photography in a bad light problem without his f/1.8 lens. I re-shot it On a white work desk and much more light. It turned-out well enough to publish.

Chromatic Scale

Canon EOS 50D, Lens EF50 mm f/1.8 II, 1/500 sec, f/1.8, ISO 100. I initially believed the "Abstract" theme was rather tricky. I happened to be looking for some abstract building component outside constantly and could perhaps not find something suitable. Then I bought a new camera to change my old EOS 350D and began to do some tryout shots on our balcony. And all of a sudden i discovered my abstract motive. It's a wind chime.

Microcircuitry, It Isn't

This really is a wet floor mat that I rolled slightly to deliver the curvature. I tweaked saturation, heat and visibility a little in iPhoto.

Couch Array

Panasonic DMC-FZ30 on my tripod, ISO80, publicity 1/10, F2.8. Really, I happened to be wandering within my home after reading your article in the picture competition. I desired something that ended up being acutely detailed but quite simple... after looking around and taking numerous terrible photos, I sat facing my tv and driven it on. It absolutely was so simple, the perfect solution is was right within my face. Therefore yes, we took many macro pictures of the pixels of my tv when it was on, I posterized it to see the pixel, boosted the colors and voila!

Reach Out and Touch Some One

Canon EOS XTi, 50mm, 1/60 sec @ f20 ISO 100. This abstract is all about the outlines together with unfavorable space rather than the obscurity of focal point. You need to look through the concept of it becoming an image of a telephone pole and view the forms.

WINNER - Hudsucker Proxy

Nikon D90 with 18-200 VRII, Insight Tech Gear HX200 torch, Manfrotto 7301YB, 200mm f/5.6, 500ms publicity, ISO400. The main topic of this chance is the exhaust pipe on my car. I inverted the vertical tube on the tripod to hold the digital camera listed below and lined it up straight using the fatigue socket. We cleaned the end quickly and damp it so that it would mirror light better. We utilized the flashlight (ridiculously bright) to illuminate the bottom between the digital camera in addition to automobile so the diffuse jump won't illuminate the vehicle much, however the wet fatigue tip would mirror round the exterior ring. We used the exposure in manual mode to fully capture simply the ring.
[Ed note: I like that, from one of mankind's many impressive, polished inventions—the automobile—we get very fundamental however fundamental forms: the circle.]

Awesome entries all around. And even though many nonetheless claim not to comprehend the idea of abstract art—indeed, the concept itself is quite abstract—I think that many of your entries delved boldly into the vast category, albeit in various methods. In addition, if you're nevertheless shopping for a definition to cause you to satisfied with the word, I found this essay on abstract art that i discovered becoming quite great. Obviously, it could simply connect much more knots within brain. But that is type of the fun of it, right?
