Instead, here is a new set of water abstracts based on photos taken last week on my drive up to Flagstaff. The Auga Fria river runs along parts of I-17, and part of it is included in a national monument of the same name. It is popular with hikers, equestrians and backpackers, and I try to make time to stop on my way and go on a hike when I'm in the area. The river was flowing stronger than I've ever seen it, no doubt due to snowmelt from higher elevations. The mid-afternoon light doesn't make for good landscape photos, but it's ideal for these reflective abstracts.
Constellation
Sun hitting the shallow sandy stream in the wash leading to the Agua Fria produces ordered and random reflections.
Rush Hour
If 5PM in downtown Manhattan was an abstract image, this could be what it might look like

This close-up shot shows the distortion detail from the water current on the underlying white granite.
Spectrum
The rocks in this image represent the 7 basic colors, and are further enhanced by the dancing light.
