Challenge: Macro Without Bugs or Flowers IV (Advanced Editing VII)
Collection: 2011
Camera: Canon Powershot G11
Location: My dining room window
Date: Jul 17, 2011
Aperture: F8.0
ISO: 80
Shutter: 1/3 Second
Date Uploaded: Jul 17, 2011

 This macro is of my Camelbak™ reservior. They call this model reserior the "Antidote".

For others who use these, and might need a replacement reservoir as I did, you might like to know that the 70 oz. antidote is not the same shape as the earlier reservoirs like the Omega. It fits in my 11 year old Lobo, but not some of the more recent ones that are tightly fitted to the reservoir.

Post-challenge notes:
Not a shabby placement, only about 1/4 of the way down. Comments were an interesting mix of critique and praise. Such is often the case when entering something shot in an abstract manner. Abstracts are a hard sell because, as one commenter noted, they want to know what it is.

Not a bad finish. Macro challenges might be one of the friendlier challenges for abstracts. I also find them frustrating though for the reasons you mentioned in your comments :-)
I liked the shapes in this.

I love the movement, the mystique, the difference in structure,... I suppose I'm looking at a vase, glass, or something of that kind?

I like the color, but the whole image is just too busy for my taste, there is no composition or one thing that draws my eye.

I wish I knew what this was so I can appreciate the macro of it...
