Seeing Things Differently

This set of images is my attempt to channel one of my fellow shooters, the talented John Bonick. After seeing John's work, which always included a dazzling array of abstract images (he's an abstract painter as well, always looking for inspiration), I gave myself an assignment: try to see the world as John might. Where colors and patterns are the compositional elements; circles and lines are the subjects. He was finding art in decay, in the unnoticed, in the ordinary - and I hadn't seen any of it. So for a few days, I tried. These are my results. Thanks John, for helping me see things differently.
