** Official Bimmerpost Photo Contest #65

panicos81 · 11-20-2012, 06:42 AM

Dont know how to explain the theme to be honest. I guess abstract photography are images that have to do with shapes, patterns, colors more than the actual subject itself.
Feel free to give your own interpretation.

some examples i think might fit the description are presented below..

SUBMISSION WILL CLOSE BY FRIDAY 30/11/2012 11:59PM GMT RULES:

1. Any interpretation of the theme that falls within Bimmerpost.com rules is welcome.
2. You must be the person that took the photo. Previous photos are acceptable as long as you are the one that captured the image.
3. One submission per contest, and you cannot resubmit a photo that you've submitted before in a previous contest.
4. Images must be no larger than 1024 px in any direction. Links to larger images are allowed but you must have one that is under 1024 px for the poll.
5. All contestants must host their own pictures (which includes hosting them on Bimmerpost).
6. All images must have a title.
7. While post processing in Photoshop is allowed, adding or removing parts of the picture is not. In the event a photo is suspected to be "photo-chopped," the contestant will be asked to provide the original picture.

I've always loved Adams' "Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico, 1941", but I never really thought of it as being particularly abstract...

That's really cool man, where is it?

carve · 11-21-2012, 02:55 PM

Thanks

White Sands, New Mexico. Very surreal. I have some other great pics from there, too. I almost submitted a black and white version, but I figured it would just maybe look like it was overexposed normal sand.

Some very cool entries thus far. Nice work, guys!

Carve, were at White Sands when they had Trinity Site open for visits? Kind of anti-climatic given the significance of it but still pretty cool.

Good stuff so far guys, can't wait to see what else everyone comes up with!
