I might give it a go Reinardina, my weekends just seem to dissapear on me at the moment without me realising!
Andydo, my understanding of abstract art / photography (this is taken from my art GCSE knowledge of 5 years ago, bear in mind!) is that it is a picture which doesn't attempt to show a concrete object or image. When I think of abstract art I think of shapes, lines and colours which exist outside of the everyday, not attempting to replicate reality. It's quite a wide theme and I'm sure everyone has different interpretations (which is why I think it will be so interesting), but I think of Piet Mondrain, Kandinsky, or even sculptures like those of Barbara Hepworth. I've just googled abstract photography (though some of the shots are, in my eyes, a little dubious), there seems to be a prevelence for macro objects, unusual angles of buildings / items, and plenty of oppurtunity to layer on photoshop. Of course, this is only my (rather rusty) view of abstract composition, others may have other ideas
