Coolby buffysneeComment: Sky high view of an abstract river delta on a metallic planet. The rivers of condensation have been converted nicely into a science fiction landscape. Nice stimulation of imagination. |

Post-Traumatic Emotionby PhotomouseComment: First instinct was low score because the blurry shapes just wouldn't gel into anything my eyes could consider interesting. On return, the thumbnail is a big help in making the "mouth" and multiple "eyes" easier to detect, although rather disturbing. Bumping up a couple of points. |

Man and Womanby iamkmaniamComment: Crop away the tree and the upper bit of sky to have an abstract diagonal shaft of light and dark. Keep the tree and have an interesting perspective of two non-abtract objects. Yes, a cylidrical shaft can have phallic connotations, but I suspect depending on the title so heavily will not be rewarded very well in an "abstract" challenge. |

Cold Steelby darnokComment: If I scroll the image up to imitate a square crop that eliminates the upper part of the image, I find a nicer balance between the in focus lower left hand corner and the remainder of the image, with the light diagonal line (?blade) setting off a sparkling region from a darker region. As displayed, the top part is so busy and blurred that it is hard to enjoy the rest. |

City Abyssby escapetoozComment: With a different title and with a square crop eliminating part of the right hand side, I would have been happy letting my eye extract from somewhat abstract shapes a double deck subway train heading into the lower left hand corner. The title just makes me want to have the image sharply in focus so I can appreciate the abyss better. |

Behind every King theres a Queenby jdixonsdComment: Interesting chess pieces, quite different than the usual. I would suggest playing with a slightly wider crop for a little breathing room, and a smaller apeture for a bit more depth of field. This may not score very well since the objects draw the eye rather than the shapes or forms independently, and the abstract idea expressed in the title is not what comes to mind when just looking at the image. |

Late Nightby mpackComment: Nice lighting of the black microphone, which would have been easy to accidentlly lose in the dark background. Although these objects may be symbolic of night life, that degree of abstraction depends too much on the title for my taste. |

Forkby QuigleyComment: Nice to have the strawberry sharply focused. Having the title "Fork" probably will work against you since that part of the image is mostly blurry background matter rather than where the eye easily lands. I suspect that completely black strawberry, existing as a nearly pure triangle with curved wide end, might have fit better in a challenge calling for "abstract" images. |

Thingsby hajekaComment: FAscinating repetition of rectangles, with just enough unexpected curves for extra interest. Echos of piano keys. Well seen. |
