Abstracts are a very important exercise in seeing. It is the process of capturing the essence of 1 isolated characteristic of some scene, or of seeing and capturing a pleasing or interesting pattern. As many photographers do, I tend to gravitate towards disorder and decay, with rusting machinery being a favorite subject. I've also been working on a collection of staircases. Whenever daylight is too bright or too flat, take it as an opportunity to hunt for details and abstracts.
