 I didn't take this for the challenge, and I concede that it's not not terribly abstract. It was taken at the Crown Fountain in Chicago's Millenium Park on a sunny 85F day.

Excellent photo, seems to me that it should have placed much higher.

It's too bad that this was in the abstract challenge, you definitely got hit by people for not being abstract enough. But I wanted to say that it's an incredible photo -- it's almost haunting. Definitely going in my favorites. :)

very nice shot - I just don't feel the abstract part of it

So much to like here, the perspective, the pull between the corner of the building and the person, the heavy, heavy rain, processing. My top score.
