Debatable about this being abstract, this is a pretty remarkable location. But art is debatable, which is one thing of many that makes it great.

Hi, I know some of my posts can be a bit hit or miss, or skirt the definition of abstract, with this one I maybe got lost in the pattern? But....it definitely is a fantastic photo and location :)

I hope I didn't come across as rude or dismissive 🙂 The Wave is an actual location in the USA that is hard to describe without having the ability to see it.

I agree, great photo! And I mean really, a photo of such an abstract place could perhaps be abstract photography after all.

No not at all, We're good!

It's a bit of a shock seeing it in colour and goes to show how monochrome really strips the subject back to the bare essentials. It may sound weird, but I think I prefer it in monochrome, it feels less harsh on my eyes and makes the texture and pattern stand out more
