+1. Our old house had lots of blinds on windows, and I had fun playing.

Very cool, John B. Only my north window lacks this kind of feedback. Of course it emits soft light and is very good for still life and small objects.

I like this… symmetry works perfectly.

Today is raining, so I fetched one from my past outings that I didn't bother to process. Looks quite striking in BW, and has an abstract look.

I like it.

I always wonder how much the architect thinks about perspectives and light and reflections when designing the appearance of a building. Have I simply captured something that he/she left for me to discover, or have I found something unforeseen? I suspect the good ones are way ahead of me.

Believe it or not, this is part of a downtown Toronto building, actually part of their walls and decor. I like the juxtaposition of colours and shapes, but also want it for my creative competitions. They even have embedded glass floor blocks and blue light fixture/sculptures, I guess to go with red light stripe.

On border of abstract, but certainly they have an abstract and surreal feel to them. The walker, for some reason, reminds me of James Dean.

I do like this one, and it works in any orientation. Seems almost Japanese in its simplicity and design aesthetic.

I like the first one in particular, but the second has that wonderful surprise element of the walking man in the corner.

Thank you for the comments John and Eric.

Went out in the fog today. It was a rare occasion for me, as I would usually be well away from the countryside.  I love the muted tones

Not sure if this belongs in abstracts. Though I did manage a walk, the weather seemed more conducive to making, rather than taking images. This is a friend with ATTITUDE.

I agree. The "ATTITUDE" comes across nicely.

Now we know that Buddha (I think) gets his power from sun. Everything else turns blue. This is an interesting experiment. There is good distribution of blue and yellow. It reminds me of Disney's, Alice in wonderland. She also stepped into a surreal world.
