Whether infrared, innovative use of light, or a special lens, Abstract Views is about tapping into a different side of plants and gardens. It's time to enter a parallel world of artistic expression with limitless possibilities. Judges will be looking for the way in which a special technique elevates the message of that particular green subject.
