Abstract and Design

Abstract art is one of my favorite designs in photography. One abstract photograph which I thought was quite amazing was a picture of more great scenery. I like how the rocks are put together and the bigger boulders around them. Its seems the picture together made a good combination of the objects. This photograph was taken by Nathaniel Coalson. What caught my eye the most is how the photograph makes it seem like the smaller rocks are making the shape of an arrow and it looks as if the arrow is pointing off the center of the photograph.



I also featured more photographs that have a good sense of abstract and design.

Light and Shadow



This photograph consists of reflection but also has very night lighting and deep dark shadows in the trees. This photograph was taken by Steve Z. And what I enjoy most about looking at this photograph is that the reflection in the water has such great depth of field and the dark trees in the background have such a crisp reflection in the water. I like how the reflection in the water and the sky above make a shape of a triangle around the subject. I feel this photograph caught my attention in many ways because of the reflections and also the heavy darks covering the trees.

I have also added two more pictures with light and shadow featured:

Point of View



This photograph caught my attention very much with it's great point of view. This image was taken by Bill Edwards. I really like structure of the glacier and how the clouds are passing it by in the background. What also interests me is how the glacier looks so perfectly still as its positioned and the lighting on the photograph is done really well. The darks coming out the left-hand side of the glacier look pretty good too.
