Another abstract macro of an agave. This is really my favorite type of photography; I know I have shot a lot of these plants in the past, but hopefully it's been long enough that they still hold some interest.

What's most interesting for me is the lighting. Very nice image.

I really love both of the agave abstracts. I think this one is more abstract though because it would be almost impossible to figure out what it is without your explanation. At first glance it looked almost like some kind of passageway of light with white curvy stick figures walking through it, very cool!

Yes, that's one of the things I like about abstracts: you can use your immagination to make it many different things.
