Actually, no. The picture was taken at a park called Gasworks Park in Seattle. It was an old industrial installation that has been converted to a park with children's playground.

Here are some more pictures taken there, though not all may be considered abstract:

Nice subject. I like the rustic quality. I see great potential for tons of abstracts.

No lah, no one allowed into the rusty metal structure. It is actually fenced up. Don't ask me how the graffiti got there...

I must go there again to take some pictures of the playground and show you guys. The playground is actually very safe for kids.

Yes, I liked the structures a lot also.

Here are some more pictures, but they are not abstracts:

I like the first one. you got both the textures & blue skies
where you metered? I always had this problem, and I've to settle between blue skies & my object. noted some of the Graffiti seems to be a overexpose.

as for Second, too bad, it is in the shadows ....
perhaps you could capture and blue skies but put those structure in silhouette? just my thoughts ...

Thanks! I just used matrix metering and left it to the camera. The graffiti over-exposure is the famous wash-out problem on Nikon CP cameras.
