In answer to yesterday’s comments about chilling the bee, I read it in a 10 year old issue of Popular Photography a little while ago. Someone donated a few to the library as a give-away to whoever wanted them; and my daughter, who volunteers there, grabbed them for me. They’re very entertaining to read. Some timeless info in there, and some amusing missed predictions regarding photography and the 21st century. So far, I’ve chilled a bee, a moth (he warmed up before I could take one photo) and a wasp. I lost the wasp in the fridge somewhere, though. Apparently they are able squeeze really skinny to make their escape.
This is Abstract Friday. This is part of the fitness center where hubby works out every morning and the girls take swim lessons. It was a beautiful sunny afternoon and the shapes of the arches going into the building caught my eye.

nice abstract shot,nice colours
Abstract indeed and modern.
Nice angles and light.
very nice composition, the angles create a different shape of frame :), very nice perspective!! Great shot!!
Hi Micki
I like this image.
Have a nice weekend! :)
cool abstract. very nice. =D
Nice geometric blocks and color contrast.
Not that vibrant/contrast-ful for me.Great idea : but wish there was more excitement.
All I will say is one day I will really get and start appreciating abstracts :)
Suby
daring composition and brilliant blue. like it!
Nice shot, love the blue against the brown.
Beautiful...could turn into a paintin!
i have no idea. i'm guessing, without looking at the other posts, that it's some kind of office folders or something? looks papery, officey.
Very cool!! Frame it as a piece of abstract art!!
wow..artistic shot...great composition:-) nice playing wt negative space, lines and shape...i really like it:-)
At first I thought this was a doormatm though I can now see it's not. A very great abstract, Micki.
I like this composition.
nice abstract micki - well composed! cheers ;)
i like this alot, very striking! that small window in the white building adds a lot to the composition.
Interesting shot. Love how shifting one's focus when looking at the picture can render all sorts of different 3D illusions... nice work.
I love very much the abstrack pictures you know that ! ;)) this one is very well cut
Artistic shot! Abstract and minimalist. Nice frame. Well done!
Terrific composition! Very well done!
Well spotted shapes with a nice contrast.
love the colors, nice geometry. love this shot.
The blue and brown go together so well. The shapes and shadow are strong and in particular i like the little window(?) in the white bit that adds even more interest and shape to the otherwise featureless white structure. Very good observation and execution.
A lovely skew here - architecture can yield some tasty abstracts if we're willing to look for them.
I like the simple geometry of this.... very nice!
