October's Photography Assignment: Abstract

October's Theme: Abstract
I debated going with something to do with costumes/horror/Halloweeny, bust decided not to get that specific. So I went with abstract! You don't necessarily need say what the picture is of, half the fun of abstract is guessing what it is.

Rules:
  • Photo has to be taken within the given month
  • Photo must be your own work
  • Please only submit ONE photo per assignment
  • If possible please post all the photo info such as lens, f/ stop, shutter speed, etc.
  • All photos are open to C&C unless otherwise noted by poster
  • No photoshopping/computer enhancement (except for frame/signature)

Due Date: October 31st

This isn't a competition, just a themed assignment for those who wish to participate. The only reason there is a due date is to keep the thread from going on and on. Feel free to PM me with options for other themes.

Constructive Criticism
The point of limiting criticism to Constructive Criticism to to keep people from just going "wow, your photo sucks" without offering a means for improvement. You could go "The composition just isn't doing it for me, maybe try moving the subjects face to the left a few inches." It would also nice and helps people receive CC better if you balance a negative with a positive such as "Well the lighting is nice, but the composition just isn't doing it for me, maybe try moving the subjects face to the left a few inches." or "I like the composition overall, but the busy background distracts me from the subject's face.'

with some time-lapse (and I can't be bothered with specifics right now) that would be pretty wicked.

There is no winn4r Kyle. It's just a collaborative thing, not a "who's is best" thing.

There also can't be a winn4r when there's only one photo submitted
