Abstractions

The most intresting and powerful version of a bonfire.

(I wasn't sure what to call this!)

Any suggestions?

Inspired by the abstract work of Wilhelmina Barnes-Graham, one of my favourite artists. We are lucky enough to have one of her prints in our living-room.

All these were created in camera this morning.
