Abstract is not representational of the object you are taking a picture of. You are taking the essence of color and form in an aesthetic arrangement. That abstraction is art. Most of the time abstract art does not have a function and is art in its form.
Most photography has a function, a picture of a car shows you that it is a car. The idea of an abstract photo is to take a shot of that car that is not representational of the car.
Like the first picture in the thread, is it a sink? is it outside plumbing?
Abstract art is just that.
Here are a few examples:
A cloud, that you take a picture of, cropped because that crop looks like a dog is an abstract. An underwater picture of a bunch of bubbles is abstract.
One thing to remember... abstract doesn't have to be anything and that is the idea.
Thanks you for the compliments you guys. Kat, after some consultation, I have reconsidered to enter myself back into the games. In the meantime, this thread is going to continue with these next couple images....CHEERS!
Those cars have always been some of my favorites.. So has this one
ooooook. Im bored, one more.
Just curious if anyone has anyone has a type of photography this would be considered? It would be helpful to know. People ask what kind of pictures I take. I respond by saying just about everything, but abstracts are my favorite. Would it be easier to just say 'things' HAHA!
But of course, this is fine art photography :DQuote:

How did I know you were going to say that? To be honest marko, that is the reason I found my way to this site. Although it does not particularly come up in typical searches for me(since I live in the states), most of the other sites I have found(based here) have been just regular photo forums. One was over 15,000 members strong, and another was good, but died after about 6 months. This place is nice, small town feel with knowledge, support, appreciation and willing to help. Couldn't be happier, Thanks again.
Oh yeah still going..... and going....
Sounds like Canada to me ;)Quote:
