Too often attempts at photgraphic abstraction seem distractingly contrived because of repetitive patterns that result from camera movement. But somehow you have avoided that pitfall with seemingly random and arbitrary lines and splotches that dominate the few repetitions from movement. The fading spoons seem to float in a jumble of intangible recollections.
Very cool, and I love Trumpeteers idea re marbles in a metal bowl too - thanks.
I wished we would see more of this type of abstract image in challenges, but I realise they are not very popular with the average voter :-( - such a shame.
Cool effect. It's a lot of fun playing around with the longer exposures. I was actually able to get an effect not too different from this by photographing marbles rolling around in a metal bowl. Really like all the light trails.
Looking at the thumbnail, I thought you were doing astrophotography. Overall, I like the abstract, except in this case, I think being able to see the spoons clearly distracts from the overall effect.
