Default Bit of Abstract...

This is a shot I got of a few women walking down the strip at the beach. I didn't think anything of it at the time, but when I loaded the pics up later, I kinda fell in love with it. I love the lines in the picture and the timing seemed to have been right on, as the woman was looking at the camera at the just the right moment. Also the way the blurs are mixing, it almost gives the effect of a head dress she is wearing.

WELCOME to DPS
I have to admit, abstract is not my cup of tea, however I can appreciate what others do whether I would do it or not. These are certainly abstract...so you accomplished your goal...nice work.

Welcome!

I enjoy abstract photos and like your 2 photos very much. The first one has an interesting sense of movement and action - it holds my interest. And I enjoy the way the colors in the second photo tie the photo together.

Thanks for sharing.
