To be or not to be - Abstract

It's hard to know how far to take the abstract theme.  I now have a few clever tricks at my disposal, but when I use them I feel I have cheated and they are not really evidence of my taking a photo.  So I decided to just crop my shiny thing and use a couple of filters, but basically the image is intact. In extras I have put my far more greatly "faffed" image, for which I can take no credit. The extra extra is of my electric kettle lid from whence these originated.
