Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #74: Abstract

Visiting Barcelona’s Parc Güell in the summer meant it was very hot and packed with tourists, but it was worth it to see the fabulous designs of Gaudí.  High above the city, it contains some interesting gardens and pieces of architecture.

Everything is in his trademark Moderisme style; even the benches are abstract versions of benches.

The coolest things to me were all the amazing textures used, as well as the way he blended natural and artificial together.

You can find more abstractions at the original Lens-Artist challenge.

 

Weekly Photo Challenge: Abstract

From County Clare, Ireland.

Distance plays tricks in this photo, looking down over the Cliffs of Moher.  Those boulders on the shore way, way down there seem like tiny pebbles next to the grass.  I also love the way the trio of colors/textures contrasts with each other.
