 I'm awful with the concept of "Abstract" and I have a feeling this is going to do absolutely terrible. Sigh...

I can't tell if this is oversharpened or not (kinda think so) and I don't know if if it looks better in color or black & white. Oh well, at least I tried, right?

A very unique view. Not exactly an abstract, IMO, but I suppose it is is an abstract view of the Rhino.

This is certainly a great photo, but I'm not so sure that you could say its abstract

Fascinating, interesting and fits the challenge - I think just "weary" is a perfect title (IMHO) and would satisfy the emotional side of the challenge more - but a minor quibble. Wonderfully photographed!

It's a great photo but for me, lacking in abstractness.
