This abstract black and white photograph features clean geometric forms of what appears to be concrete or plaster architectural elements. The composition creates a striking interplay between light-colored surfaces and deep black negative spaces, with sharp angles and strong contrasts. The building materials show subtle texture and weathering marks, adding organic character to the otherwise stark geometric forms. Dramatic lighting emphasizes the architectural lines and creates depth, transforming ordinary structural elements into a compelling minimalist study that abstracts the essence of constructed space.

This abstract image presents a dense, textural composition dominated by dark, flowing organic forms that resemble underwater vegetation, likely seaweed or kelp fronds. The entire scene is dramatically illuminated with warm golden and amber lighting that creates striking highlights throughout the composition. The forms appear to be swaying and intertwining, creating a sense of movement as if captured underwater with currents flowing through. The lighting effect transforms what might otherwise be a dark underwater scene into something almost luminous, with the golden tones creating depth and visual interest against the darker organic shapes. The overall effect is both mysterious and beautiful, suggesting the hidden beauty found in ocean depths where sunlight filters down through marine vegetation.

An abstract photograph displaying complex geometric patterns with concentric bands and angular zigzag formations in rich earth tones of deep green, bronze, cream, and metallic highlights. The image features flowing geometric wave structures that create rhythmic, tessellated patterns across the frame. Each colored band follows precise angular paths that fold and intersect, creating a mesmerizing optical geometry reminiscent of topographical contour lines or crystalline lattice structures. The metallic highlights emphasize the geometric precision of these undulating, chevron-like formations that seem to ripple in mathematical harmony across the composition, with the warmer color palette giving it an organic, almost wood-grain quality.

A close-up macro view of rice grains scattered densely across the frame, each grain's elongated oval form clearly visible with subtle translucent qualities and gentle shadows. The rice creates an abstract pattern of repetition and variation, like a field of potential sustenance. In a world where hunger persists, this abundance of grains represents hope multiplied - each kernel capable of growing into plants that yield hundreds more, creating an endless cycle of nourishment. The grains catch the light, emphasizing their purity and the fundamental role they play in sustaining billions of lives across cultures and continents.

As commented before, I appreciate the landscape "series", do you envision a world these pieces fit into? I like to imagine they are part of a planet, where we are peeking into small sections, like a satellite imaging the world, piece by piece.

Appealing architecture and a lovely shot, there is something calming about the rhythmic forms, and the contrasting colours.

@paulmollon.bsky.social Thank-you, I felt it met the brief this week in a weird and non-obvious way. I have some other images that came out of this photo session which I plan on putting up at some point. I mainly struggled to get focus with my macro lens, so many shots were lost in this process.

Your first thoughts are about right, a speaker, milk and a sine wave at a low-ish frequency. I got some other crazy shots, I will put them up at some point.

A red metronome photographed against a pure black background. The metronome's pendulum arm is captured in motion, creating symmetrical motion blur arcs that demonstrate the alternating movement between left and right positions. These translucent, ghostly trails extend horizontally from the central mechanism, visually representing the alternating rhythm that defines the metronome's function. The metronome body remains sharp and stationary in the center, showing clear tempo markings, while the blurred pendulum traces make the alternating motion visible as ethereal streaks frozen in time.

A close-up view of milk captured with cymatics, showing the liquid surface transformed by sound waves into an alternating pattern of peaks and valleys. The acoustic vibrations create a rhythmic landscape of rounded, luminous forms that rise and fall across the frame, with each peak catching light while the valleys remain in shadow. The alternating high and low points create a mesmerizing topography where the milk's surface oscillates between elevated mounds and depressed areas, making the invisible sound waves visible as a tactile, three-dimensional alternating pattern.
