Buck's Stove Palace

Coming home from a long workday and looking for a blip at 11:30 p.m. and this storefront caught my attention. I had not noticed this place before, like so many places that keep popping up for me lately. The ambient light and this old wagon wheel spoke very 'old west' to me. But if you saw this busy commercial street in the midday you would smile.

I have only been able to check in on half the abstracts from Abstract Thursday so far and they continue to satisfy! There were just under fifty entries and the experimentation appears to be jubilant at times. And the comments between all is great adrenalin fodder.
I will say hi to all in due time.

It is always good to give newcomers a little help in diving in to the challenge, and here is a quote from newcomer, Connections, who dove in with this definition that she found.
"Abstract photography... is a means of depicting a visual image that does not have an immediate association with the object world... An abstract photograph may isolate a fragment of a natural scene in order to remove its inherent context from the viewer, it may be purposely staged to create a seemingly unreal appearance from real objects, or it may involve the use of color, light, shadow, texture, shape and/or form to convey a feeling, sensation, or impression."
