This really isn't abstract photography, a lot of people appear to have confused abstract with macro, unfortunately this doesn't meet either. In terms of the photo, it is pretty good, the out of focus glasses aren't exactly pleasing to the eye, however it does make you think about the photo

This is a really cool advertisement pic but I don't see it fitting well with an Abstract theme - which is a pity, I rally really like it.

This is not an abstract IMO. It is a close up, an advertisement at best.

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.

Nice idea, good comp, great color, nice texture b&w good, nice flow, nice lines, overall a creative pix but not for this challenge
