Here are a couple of abstracts I shot with my iPhone.
#23: Light Grid
#24: Butterfly Shadows
#18: Ominous.
We’ve had some crazy clouds the last week or so. Very interesting to photograph.
#11: Tilt Shift Toy
One of the defining features of tilt shift photos is a small depth of field (lots of blurring) that makes photos of a large scale look like toy models. I kind of took that in a different direction here. Oh well, it’s funny to me. Reagan laughed at it too.
#12: Abstract Bokeh
Bokeh is the term for out of focus objects in a photo (usually the background). With my normal camera it’s pretty easy to accomplish. With an iPhone, with it’s automatic focus, it’s a little tougher. I had to trick the camera in to focusing on the background so the foreground would bokeh nicely. I’m really happy with the result.
#9: Found Rothko.
This photo’s colors, textures and composition reminded me of the work of one of my favorite painters, Mark Rothko. I’ve added a photo of a Rothko painting (on the right) to illustrate why I see similarities.
