Hi Alastair,

Thanks so much for your message, I answer with some delay....

I know the images of Edward Weston, I don't know Brett..... I think it  
is very difficult to define what is an abstract and what could be  
considered as fine or not, this is a quite subjective impression IMO.  
My abstract was absolutely unexpected, not the result of a reflection,  
it was a picture I decided cropp and convert to B&W, for me it mades  
"his work" with no other pretehension. I agree that a rigorous process  
would be and should be very different and much better.

Cheers
Lluis
