Abstracts: Blue (da ba dee)

This week I’m doing abstracts. It might not be my area of expertise, but maybe it is. I love getting close on things and people and seeing the world that exists on the macro level.

Sometimes getting close yields something with a feel beyond simple photography. In the case of this photo, Blue (da ba dee), the pealing, blue paint surrounded by all the other colors and textures yields a photographic abstraction, something beyond what you would typically see when you look first look at this.

Framing the view, capturing a specific part of the image, and post-processing creates something beyond what the original image you see in real life, whatever real life is.
