This gets a high score for its powerful impact, even though I recoil each time I view it.

covert (covered?) dialog

Comment:
Interesting idea, although I find the person in the seats above the two players and his white shirt and sock rather distracting. Cropping much closer to the players in general might have been effective.

"A Little Swifter"

Comment:
Yup, music is one of the great universal languages, that's for sure. Nice composition. I particularly like the reflections of the musical score on the instrument, and the off white you achieved for the paper, or perhaps it was that color anyway. An aside (and this did not influence my scoring in any way..) I suspect the score used in this image was not one for this woodwind instrument... it looks more like something written for the piano!

One of the more interesting images of this genre ... the illumination of the posts supporting the railing on the upper roadway and the partially illuminated road surface next to them are nice details. I also like the way the pillars supporting the upper roadway, as well as the upper roadway itself, break up the lights on the lower roadway. Nice image.

Fowl Motion

Comment:
Unusual. I like the way the animal's head merges into the background, but is nevertheless still distinct from it. The image nicely captures both the "abstract" and the "motion" aspects of this challenge.

Lilly had dreams of going to the ball..

How evocative. This wonderfully expresses both motion and the quality of someone dreaming (the abstract component). Great image. I love how the door stop provides a "break" as one's eye gets drawn toward that quite large expanse of light reflecting from the floor on the right of the image.

Cavalry in motion

Comment:
Very evocative. Unusual. Makes you stop and take a longer look. Too bad about the couple of over bright areas. But I gave it a good score

Birth of Spring

Comment:
Lovely pastel colors certainly create a feeling of spring. A nice example of abstracting a concept.

The Installer

Comment:
Interesting image, but not abstract enough in my opinion, and only a very small portion of the image depicts motion

I'm trying to figure out how you set this up. Presumably held the ball at rest for a short time and then "released" it, or pushed it. But why are there three distinct areas rather than one long blur. Hmmm. Fun...
