Sweet abstracts! Last 2 are very appealing!

I agree. I especially am drawn to #3. Seems mysterious and inviting. Once again your processing is almost below the radar and that's meant as a compliment.

Taz, Wayne, thank you. Wayne, I take your comment as a compliment. If I notice the processing, I seldom like the image.

Very creative work here, Don. #3 is especially special. Lovely and I've never seen anything quite like it.

JonaBeth, Joel, thanks for the comments.

Don these are all great and make for a nice series. I do think the third could use a little lighting up of the black point or shadows as the there is a lot of black.

Also- have you played with a black and white conversion on #3?

Cornflake

Aaron, thanks. I went back and forth on shadow detail in the last one and finally opted for just a little detail that was barely there. Most of the shadow detail was irrelevant , unattractive and tended to distract from the sunlit forms. I'm not being defensive. It may have been a poor judgment but that's where I came out.

I did try black and white on that one. I liked it, but it seemed weaker.
