 Was reading up on panning and figured an easy way to experiment was to move myself and the camera together rather than the tracking the subject. Went to a nearby park and played on the monkey bars and slide but was having trouble keeping the camera steady. Swings ending up producing the best results. Enjoy and thanks for looking.

I guess the motion got the best of you. Nice idea for that, but it isn't abstract, IMHO.

Nice job showing motion, not sure it's abstract.

Good self-portrait nice show of movement and you may have an abstract personality. Okay, you convinced me.7

I'm having a hard time with this, because I've voted other photos with the main subject in focus as not abstract. I really like this, though. But, I've been using the definition: "Of, relating to, or being a style of art in which natural objects are not represented realistically." Sorry, I can't go higher than a 6 if I think that it does not meet the challenge. I hope a 6 doesn't hurt your score, because I do like the picture!

This shows motion and it's humorous, but what is abstract?

If you had left out the person on the swing, it would have been a perfect abstract motion.
