This si a great still-life study of the lamp but is not quite abstract. For abstract we're expecting to see interesting shapes and colours but not be able to tell what they are.

While maybe not what some would see as "abstract", it does show a "different perspective" on a common element. Might like to see the tip of the upper right bulb for a bit more balance.

Technically not a bad picture, but not very abstract

not really abstract

This is not an abstract IMO. It is a close up. A differant angle, and tighter on this subject would of been better.

Definition 1= Art that departs significantly from natural appearances. Forms are modified or changed to varying degrees in order to emphasize certain qualities or content. Recognizable references to original appearances may be slight. The term is also used to describe art that is nonrepresentational.

Definition 2=Not realistic, though the intention is often based on an actual subject, place, or feeling. Pure abstracion can be interpreted as any art in which the depiction of real objects has been entirely discarded and whose aesthetic content is expressed in a formal pattern or structure of shapes, lines and colors. When the representation of real objects is completely absent, such art may be called non-objective.

Interesting angle, b&w ok, light ok, flow ok, dof ok, comp needs work, overall a boring pix not for this challenge

Not what I really imagined an abstract to be like, I'd like to see more subtlety in the shapes to make this an abstract
