These type of light-tracing images are easy to make, but are rarely as interesting as this one.

Keith, thanks for kind words.  The light source was a jet flying above where I live, and I used a 400mm lens on D7000.  So, the total inability to handhold the rig helped a lot.  :D

Anything captured with my 50/0.75 Heligon will be "minimalistic" by design.

I love to hear everything about guitar, although I am a poor guitar player... :'(

 :)

Francis, no worries!  There are a bunch of different ways to enjoy the guitar: playing, listening, appreciating...

Big size in reality, but minimalistic.

Great set of images.

There are so many ways to achieve minimalism.  I believe it is exploration of the impact of simplicity, a meaningful glance, a single word, a single bar.  Perhaps, we strive for that in most of our photographs.

Well said. I can surely relate to this sentiment.

A landscape can become minimalistic in foggy weather.
