In photography, ‘abstract’ is explained as a means of depicting a visual image that does not have an immediate association with the object world and that has been created through the use of photographic equipment, processes or materials.

Abstract photography is also a method of expressing ideas and emotions with photographed image elements without the intention of creating a traditional or realistic image. This gives the photographer, the freedom to take a photo of anything that grabs their attention and allows them to express their artistic nature.

Your challenge for this competition is to enter images that express your artistic nature, and focus on, simplicity, composition, angle, lighting and harmony whilst capturing an element of mystery too.
