 Photographed clear plastic spoons on a black teeshirt under black light in a dark room. Again and again until I got something that might work. Processed jpeg version (The RAW version went crazy!) with curves and some global selective colors. Cropped.

I sure hope people don't think it's too dark. It looks pretty good on my monitor.

pretty good oxymoron. The picture is tough though. It's not abstract enough to be abstract, but otherwise it's just a shot of 5 plastic spoons. 5
