This is one of my favourite themes, having tried to do something abstract with all my cameras / lenses / film types over the years. I'm expecting some great entries from mentalp, concrete, sideshowbob, cesare, Dan_m amongst others.

cheers

PS whoever wins this one can they make the next theme based on Rivers?

Hey Ben, you need to use the IMG tag, not the URL tag, like this:

BTW, I really like the shot!

Thanks - I am a computer fool, so I never get stuff like that right.

Bugger, just realized that does not comply with the rules. I am an idiot.

Cheers! The product of an afternoon spent messing with my new toy; a Sigma DP-1.

Like that Martin, you should leave it in anyway as a stand against petty bureaucracy!

That looks very familiar Jonathan.

Really? What do you think it is?

Really? What do you think it is?

A detail from this?

 

[Jonathan Ribee]

It's some stuff on my coffee table that I once accidentally shot putting my camera down, saw the results and thought - interesting - I wonder if I should have a proper go at photographing that?

So today I did.

Here is another view of one of the objects that will make officandos (maybe Mull?) go - "oh yeah - that's a..." and probably confuse anyone else further. Please excuse my lack of dusting.

Looks like two pieces of scented, wooden fruit to me. ??

[Jonathan Ribee]

You can get scented wooden fruit? Weird!

 

[Mullardman]

Jonathan, please don't take offence.. none was intended. I just thought it was familiar. I too looked at the cover of Songs in the Key of Life, but it isn't that. I also looked at Santana's Caravanserai and it isn't that either. Even if it was a detail from either, it wouldn't in my view invalidate it, as it would be something you saw as abstract.

I'm not an 'afficianado' and I'm not trying to catch you out.
