Yes - yes they are. Not a terribly interesting image - the color is rather drab and the subject matter is...well, dull and rather commonplace. Sorry - it just doesn't do anything for me.

spirits having flown

There is one huge problem with this and that is the shadow. I understand the concept and the subject, but the shadow just looks like a smudge and not the lingering image of a spirit. A little more definition with the spirit subject would have made this an outstanding image.

The curve.

This is not your ordinary time lapse - there is a big element of artistic competence from the streaking lights to the stainless rails to the individual spot lights. I also like the fact that the white lighting isn't blown out which is a tendency for some on long exposures. Well done - very nice image.

I'm a big fan of abstract art and much like an earlier image, this is also a very good example of Abstract Expressionism. There is a very empyrean to this that I am quite impressed with. Don't know if this was intended or not (the title would seem to indicate it was), but I sure as hell like it a lot. Great color space and a wonderful impression. A ten for me - others probably not. Well done.

Very interesting use of multiple images - certainly meets the criteria of the challenge in a unique way. I like it.

I'm not sure that the author recognizes, or even intended this to be, abstract expressionism in the style of Jackson Pollock, but it is a great example of the genre. I enjoy abstract art and photography - manipulated or not. The title gives the image purpose. Probably not going to score high, but it's a favorite for me.

A unique perspective and gorgeous colors make this a great image - it's very subtle color range is a real positive. The change in perspective on the highway bridge is also a plus. Very nice image - very pleasing.

Field of (winter) Dreams

One of the problems with photographing falling snow is....falling snow. In this case it works because of the nature of the lighting. I particularly like the snow's texture and it's granular nature. The conversion,a tough one with snow, is well done. Good job overall.

Majestic Fire

This is the kind of long term exposure that photographers don't think of. When you think about it, clouds are similar to flowing water - the same technique can be used for moving clouds when the light is right. This is terrific just for technical competence and worthy of a ten just because of the innovative exposure and pleasing color space. Well done.
