Thanks everyone for taking the time to comment, I'm pleased some people really liked it, I was regretting entering this at first until the positive comments started coming in. Thanks John, Robert and Don for coming back and commenting after the challenges ended also, it's nice knowing I've produced something people have given a second look.

Actually before entering this challenge I looked up abstract photography on several sites (here, 1x, flickr, google images...) to get a better idea of what classifies as abstract, as well as checking the dictionary definition - to me this seemed to fit fine. It was only after I saw everyone else's entries and my score plummeting that I realised I was mistaken.

what's funny is that in any other challenge they would have voted this down for being too abstract

Ridiculously low placement on a wildly evocative and brilliantly-titled entry. A 9 from me.

It's not the love that brings me in but that little flare of sun. So very pretty!

I like your title, not sure this completely works as abstract though, not voting
