Weekly Photo Challenge: Abstract

The recent WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge wants us to point our cameras at something familiar to turn it into something else, right, it’s about abstract photography. While I didn’t take an abstract photo recently, I thought I go through my Lightroom library to see if I can participate with any photo I have taken in the past, and I knew I would find a dozen of abstract photos. Sometimes I really try to shoot an abstract scene, but at times I do also get abstract photos due to any errors, like the wrong camera settings. focussing wrong, pressing the shutter button in the wrong moment and so on. I want to show you one photo where I failed to focus the subject, but the result was so cool that I didn’t want to delete the image, it’s an abstract photo of a Christmas glitter ball…

    1. For some reason I like to take unfocussed pictures of lights, because the results are often pretty interesting. It’s funny that I learned this by mistake once, when I focussed badly. 🙂

    1. That was basically me pressing the shutter button before focussing (laugh). I decided it is a keeper because I liked how my error turned out. I find it sometimes interesting how things look if focus is totally off… cool abstract photos can be created on that way 😀
