Great contest!

A nice double exposure of jug, bottle and glass. The objects appearing in outline only which increases the abstract nature of these easily recognized items. The yellow, orange/blue, green background is nicely positioned and I appreciate the lack of a definite pattern. A pleasing composition that allows the eye to explore the image. Well done and congratulations on being in my top ten selection.

Out of an household object you have created a pleasing abstract image that is a work of art. The natural beauty of the free flowing black lines with the dashes of gold is amplified with the multiple exposure. I am not a fan of borders for screen viewing but in this case it works fine. It is clear that you have gone to a lot of trouble to present this image. Well done and congratulations in being in my top ten selection.

A true class, glass, act. The uniform blue outline of the object harmonizes and ties the whole together. The process of flipping the image adds symmetry and further strengthens the whole. The blue base and black background makes the image stand out. Simple objects carefully composed, shot and processed makes this a top ten selection. Congratulations.

I really enjoyed studying this sewing machine abstract. The style and form reminded me of the work of George Braque. Three blended sewing machine images, harmonized with a brown/blue textured overlay. The brown material being fed into the machine is untouched by the blue texture and is a great addition. Wonderful abstract image and a worthy number one. Congratulations.

A very eye catching image of a watch. The use of just two main colors, red and silver gives the image unity. The long helix spiral pulls the eyes down to the of center and the watch hands. I have no idea how you created this effect but it is certainly a winning formula. Well done and congratulations on being in my top ten selection.
