I agree with you 100%!! There are many beautiful architecture abstracts where I can tell what the object is but it's still an abstract. Abstract doesn't mean unrecognizable. |

I was just looking to see if there was already a thread started where I could express that same opinion.
Here's a fantastic example of an abstract by Ursula in which the subject is recognizable.
To whoever wrote the challenge description: Convince me that this isn't an abstract...and a great example of an abstract as well. |

You can, though I personally consider those recognizable subjects to be semi-abstract. I'm actually pleased with that aspect of the description. There is a large fuzzy area, however.
