I am going to be a bit contentious. Is that sufficiently abstract? I think the underlying landscape is still recognisable as a landscape...and I always thought abstract artwork should have no recognisable features? In the early days of digital design I used Kai Power Tools (in PS) to create weird background effects including fractals and laser effects. Then tweaking Curves abnormally gave even weirder colour distortions to the designs. Didn't do anything with them apart for one that was used as a CD cover for an emerging pop group......they never made it either. ![]() This what I mean about distorting Curves. It renders more of the recognisable parts....unrecognisable. Maybe a tad OTT to emphasise the idea ![]() Click here to comment on this image.

Interesting take on the abstract set subject Eric. Abstract is not for me but I will enter my go at it to support the camera club.

Not really industrial nor a landscape - there is a clue to the object which is the subject....

As I understand it, the key point about abstract is that the artist is trying to say something. Sadly it’s often only the artist that knows what that ‘something’ is, without a clue in its title. ![]() So mere observers like me, are left having to decide if “it looks nice” ….whatever it depicts. There are a myriad of software packages/filters that enable us to ‘b*gger about’ with our photos. The question must be, why are we doing it or what are we trying to say? Nothing wrong with mucking about just to see what happens and if the end result is pleasing to the eye, success! I like to title my photos (often because Jan says “why on earth did you take that?” ![]() Last year I created a photobook for her on the occasion of our Golden Wedding, called “To the Casual Eye”, which shared many of my grabshot photos over the years….with explanations/captions. Having looked back over these photos, I confess probably 40% of my titles were ‘thought up’ after seeing the captured image, as opposed to seeing and capturing a ‘subject with an obvious title’. But in the long run, does it matter why we do it or what we read into it? It’s a bit of fun. ![]()

Some examples of “see it…say it” photos.![]() Click here to comment on this image. ![]() Click here to comment on this image. ![]() Click here to comment on this image. Of course sometimes you don’t need to add a title…the photo does it for you. ![]() ![]() Click here to comment on this image.

When I saw these boys standing looking at the events unfolding on a quayside (to which they were excluded) it immediately made me think they were ‘behind bars’ or ‘barred entry’. So many options for titles after the event …but I couldn’t resist a more edgy (but probably completely unfair) one. ![]() Click here to comment on this image. Yes I know there’s a bad edit by the ear of the right hand boy. There was a shop sign coming out of his ear! In fairness, it was the early years of digital photo editing and I had yet to perfect faultless cloning……still trying. ![]()
