Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Abstract Photography

Cee’s challenge this week is about abstractions. My try is from Malmoe last Autumn. See more abstract photos here.

Like abstract art, abstract photography concentrates on shape, form, colour, pattern and texture. The viewer is often unable to see the whole object. The subject of the photo is often only a small part of the idea of the image. Viewers may only know the essence of the image subject or understand it by what is implied. 

Often the image will not be a literal view of the subject itself. The subject tends to come second to seeing. The impact of aspects of the subject become a form of expressing the point. (definition found here)

Travel Theme: Environment

Environment – Nature…was here first. Long before us. Here some photos from the exhibition I visited two weeks ago. Helene Schmitz, Dunkers, Helsingborg.

For more environment – go to Ailsa’s here.

Travel Theme: Energy

Energi – Energy, almost the same word in both languages. And from the people of Tibet in the Himalayas, I send pictures for Ailsa’s theme, showing some of their most useful energy sources.

The sun, the water and the dung.
