A New View: Abstract and Surreal Photography
The TaskLook at your artistic space in a new way and create abstract or surreal
photographs, using the
ABCs as guidelines if you do not normally shoot in this genre. Try to look for mundane things and make them unusual, exceptional, artistic, or otherworldly (example: create an abstract image by photographing your dog's fur in macro, create a surreal scene from your bedroom using lighting to affect the resulting photograph, etc).
The TimelineLuckily, photography these days can be a pretty instant art. So in celebration of Abstract and Surreal week during Project Educate, A New View will only run for a week!
So get going and pull out that inspiration.

I think dA should get back to where it started, the art! deviantART: Where art meets application! Ha, thats bullshit.

Empty
broken as the raining sky around you
I haunt you
with sightless eyes
a ravaged soul
a soundless cry
a child calling to a mother dead
an angel falling
to a sea of red
broken as the toy played with to long
abused and gone.
