Some of the toughest to spot and execute. Made close to 1:1 with 60mm Macro lens, hand held. May not have universal appeal but I enjoy doing abstracts more than formals.

Love the flowing pink color.

Top work! I like this very much, and agree about your thoughts: these are much more difficult than they might appear!

Outstanding as usual, Ram!! Your abstracts are worth the price of admission alone. Really beautiful stuff.

Your mastery of these abstracts is inspiring. Such a beautiful study of the lines and colors. Really a delight for the eye. Thanks for sharing.
