Oh dear!
Does no one like abstracts?

Yes I love them!

However I fear I can see no discernible pattern or purpose to these shots which are technically excellent but to my eye at least lack any real composition, flow, energy or I fear purpose! That sounds horribly harsh and is only my own opinion which may be totally misguided.

Sorry.

Does everyone else agree?

Sorry. I have to say they remind me of pictures taken to show grain structure for metallurgy lectures. Not the most inspiring.

Sorry but I'm in agreement with the others, useful for a geology course perhaps but I'm really struggling to see any interest in them and I see plenty of Welsh Slate !!

It may be nice surface...but...
as a photo - no composition. Even an abstract needs a composition.
Find some shapes there, rise the contrast, go close, add even color....whatever.
