Inside out or Outside in

I love reflection photography. I find reflection of life around me fascinating to watch. Watching it as an observer or as an unobserved bystander makes me see beyond what is obvious. Here reflection of nature tones down serious officious atmosphere inside.

On a windy day

Laburnum on a windy day

Here I have created another abstract from nature.  It was slightly windy day. Laburnum tree was full of flowers. Slow movement of bark was enticing me to capture it. I used ICM to capture what I saw. It expresses what I saw.

I created an abstract...

Adenium Seeds

Here is an answer to the question I am asked quite frequently. Do I see in abstract or do I create an abstract? This photo represents both. I saw Adenium seeds on a plant. I captured the image using an angle which made it an abstract. I could do it because I saw it in all its abstractness. Once I started editing it , I decided to post process it and made it more abstract. Took away its form and identity and created an abstract.

Day and Night

Day & Night

Abstract is all about seeing. A Window at my home, half of it covered by protection against sun, made me think of day and night.  Little bit of post processing made the contrast stronger.

Beauty of small things of life

One can find beauty anywhere if one wishes to find it. I noticed this scene during my stroll across vegetable market. I found my abstract touched with reality.

Water Abstract - Swimming Reflections

Swimming Reflections

Reflection can be wonderful subject for abstract photography. Reflection wonderfully distorts the subjects whether in glass , water or on any reflective surfaces. My favourite though is reflection in water as water can move giving it further distortion. 

Romance of Abstract

One more aspect of abstract photography, which I have always enjoyed is feeling of romance. Sheer poetry of it has always appealed to me. Photo above highlights it by dash of Pink and gently flowing Blue curtain. Monet's Giverny is a place made for romance. Each corner of that house and famous garden and its lily pond is highly romantic. Abstract photographer in me wanted to highlight that feeling with use of elements around. And I feel I have succeeded in it.
