Here is my version of Abstract... ;-) Was flat on the ground and this signature spider had a very large web inside the grass,  The web was lit in bits and pieces. Decided to make it a bw image.
C&C welcome

Very interesting patterns, from what looks like pearls to an uncoiled spring.  The black and white works well.

Balan, Beautiful lines, nice B&W conversion. Great abstract from spiderweb. I like this one.

Ingenious take on the spider web! No way of knowing what it is makes it abstract,indeed and a great visual meditation. Now you've told us what it is, makes it fascinating!  Good going!

Balan, these "strings of beads" look great.  Going B&W also has me thinking of a close up look at a zebra, which is a fun twist.

Nicely captured, Balan. Good use of the ET.

A unique approach to spider webs.  I think the B&W works well, it does look somewhat like zebra stripes!  I like the different lines.  Thanks for sharing.

A very interesting abstract, Balan.  I like the transition from curves to diagonals as the eye moves across the image.
