INSPIRATION AND ASSIGNMENTS: LOOKY WHAT I SEE
Most of the subject matter I photograph falls into the “nature” category. Flowers, trees, scenics and everything in between are typical subjects. There are times when architecture even comes into play.
While out shooting these “typical” subjects, I am always on the lookout for something fun, different, or the unusual.
Images that don’t have a specific category on my computer yet, and could be classified as unusual, or different or fun, are stored in a folder I have named “Abstracts”.
Here is a photo that has just been added to my abstracts folder. I would bet that most folks have seen this a time or two.

I don’t know what it is, but it seems like something made from aluminum, like a detail of aluminum can. Or maybe an earring?
Good guess Cornell but sorry to say incorrect.
Hmmm…something with water and metal…a kitchen sink with the water on low?
It is water and metal. And in fact it is a stream of water and the bottom of my kitchen sink. I even rotated the image upside down to make guessing more difficult. I suppose I’m going to have to make my abstract images more abstract.
