not sure if thisis the right forum but i couldnt find an abstract section:) anyway any shot can be rendered abstract by using an extreme depth of field. such is possible with sub f1.4 lenses. what do you guys think?

Bro., I guess what you mean to imply is Extreme shallow DOF.! Indeed nice abstractions and colour/contrast rendition. :)

thanks, you know if i moved the focal point by only i inch the entire contrast of the pic would change entirely.

Niiiice! Indeed this is the right section for it (fine art). I love the first photo, very sculpture-ish. Kudos!

Though I agree the title is misleading. Might want to change it to "extremely shallow DOF"? Extreme depth of field implies sharp focus to infinity (as I understand it). :)

Carlo great photography! just like brushwork..never mind the focal point,
the color and composition will speak for themselves..:)
Mitz is right, its fine art..
