February 17 Abstracts (Part 2)
In my previous post I shared 5 abstract photos from a 2014 February 17 photoshoot. Here are another 5 from that particularly creative and productive batch.
The Corner of My Eye
Blues Three
Brick and Blue Alley
Swimming in Blue
Urban Abstract 8636
As with most of my previous abstract photos, my basic technique is to use a long exposure (made possible by a neutral density filter) and then move the camera in a particular direction during the exposure. Post processing to emphasize color and contrast is usually also required.
Someday, I am looking forward to using some of these photographic images as inspiration, starting points for large paintings.
February 17 Abstracts
After a few months where cold weather made me less inclined to take my camera out, I did finally do so and concentrated on some long exposure with camera motion abstractions. After a bit of post-processing I came out with some images that I am very happy with:
Green Orb
Shadow Fence
Orange Band
Winter Landscape
Playground Color
More images from this abstract photo project can be seen in my follow-up posting.
