Thanks for elaborating. I'll keep that in mind moving forward when posting to this sub. I have noticed that people tend to respond positively to more traditional photos and negatively to abstraction. But there are specific subs for posting those images so it's not a big deal.

If you are at all interested in abstract photography, there are plenty of artists to look at. There's Man Ray, Aaron Siskind, and Edward Weston. It started gaining in popularity in the late 1800s / early 1900s with the Abstract Expressionist movement and on through Cubism and Futurism.
