ABSTRACTS!!!

Definition: Abstract Art is defined as: any art in which real objects in nature are represented in a way that wholly or partially neglects their true appearance and expresses it in a form of sometimes unrecognizable patterns of lines, colors and shapes.

Today we will begin shooting, looking for abstract images. Look for patterns, lines, shapes, colors, textures, shadows, get close up to your subject, try funky camera angles, and think outside of the box. Have a little fun, you can find abstract images EVERYWHERE.
