Minimalism Contest Stamp by Abstract--Reality

>>>The News Article!
You can see it here >> news.deviantart.com/article/10… <<
That's something I was unable to figure out: how do I submit a news article on behalf of a group :boo:? Well, whatever :sadangel:

--

A recent poll determined that Minimalism will be the theme of this contest.
Of course, we will stick to abstract and surreal photography.

How about having a glass of :beer: at the :iconmini-bar:? It's a club dedicated to minimalist photography, so it could be a great source of inspiration for this contest! See how these pictures feature simple and clear composition. That what we are looking for: smoothly composed pictures, abstract/surreal and beautiful. It's not enough to make it abstract. Try to make it mesmerizing! We want to see pictures which one wanna watch forever. Something so delightful in its simplicity that a whole world of feelings can be seen behind it. A picture that speaks for itself, without words, just by shapes and tones. Think about it, don't rush, you have more than a month to focus on minimalism; but don't forget about sending in something too ;P

Also, I will soon make a news article.
