 I've been shooting abstracts all week! My team, patient people that they are, have been very helpful. Crop here, change the color, try it in reverse or perhaps upside down. Can you shoot something else?

Anyway, I wore them down. They threw their hands up and said "Sure! Go with that! Enter and be done!" Veiled in enthusiasm, it was a not-so-subtle ploy (I'm quite sure) to get me to quit posting stuff for them to review. :-)

The title comes from jagar - thanks, John!

So here you have my abstract. Enjoy! And feel free to guess what it is....

So how DO you say flaming blue asparagus in French!! I see I never commented but would have bumped up your commenter average!! I'm sure that your team is enjoying the efforts more than you know (and if not, they should be)!

I gave this a 6. If you'd given it a french title, I probably would have bumped it higher and commented... :P

Rich in color and texture. Cool with attitude. Maybe Henry Winkler will buy it.
