An interesting and engaging abstraction.
Impossible not to make this association to Duchamp:

| This was way underrated, IMO. What a fabulous photo. Feel nude, see nude... whatever. It's there and it works. |

That's the best kind of abstract, IMO. The shapes look like what they are supposed to be, but at the same time they aren't what they appear to be.
I would love to see a shot of this shot from a different angle that revealed what you were shooting (the same applies to most all of your work). You have a great eye for shape, texture, and color.
I second the "magic flowers" love. Too funny.

You 'weren't allowed'? How does that happen!? |
that was a lame joke about me being under 13 years old. Never mind. |

This is probably the most interesting entry to look at in the competition. Don't get me wrong, some of the other entries are beautiful and have more of a 'wow' [or a 'phwoar'] to them, but this certainly provokes a different reaction - as good abstracts do. I like it for that reason as well as the textures and colours.
If i could have voted in this challenge it would have scored highly, probably a 9 or 10. |

Andres, I'm sure other interpretations will vary greatly, this is mine:

| No dpc-friendly (imo) but for this challenge it is the image I looked at longest - that alone counts for a lot. Abstract and interesting, serendipitous or intentional, this does very well in my book. |

| It took me a great deal of viewing before I saw the body. I love the feel of the image, and the sense of some sort of truly vast scale. A quite extraordinary piece of art that needs to be viewed again and again. |

| Sorry but I have never been a fan of abstract art and I don't have a clue on what I am looking at here, images like this just do not appeal to me personally, just thought I'd explain the low vote. |

| I enjoy abstracts and really like how you used the angular black border to define the image. The suggestion of a nude silhouette is intriguing but arguably a bit of a stretch in satisfying the challenge. |
