Gone Fishing

Looks kind of like an abstract flower with a bug nearby. Or, you know, fishing. Not sure what it actually is, but the motion blur gives me no real glimpse of the subject, or I'm just not seeing it, so I'll count that as a bad thing. It's not really a bad image, though; I rather like it.

Something is sucking the souls out of those horses =:-O So that weird bit of motion blur actually interests me. Which is good.

That distortion is really quite atrocious. And is she going to eat the purse and shopping bag? 'Cuz that's just weird. But I'm busily trying to figure out what she IS eating, and am curious about what she's looking at, so there are some good things about the image. And the distortion certainly draws the eye, which is ... good?

Not bad at all. The shadowy figure in the shower is sufficiently mysterious for interest. Maybe could have been cropped tighter to get rid of some things distracting me, but that's only a little bad.

Everyone is on FB. It's the Borg.

The image ... hard to see through the window and the background is overexposed, so congrats on that. Not sure the badness makes it good, though.

The focus on the reflection of the trees is actually quite nice. Oddly cropped with just bits of the right-side-up world showing, so I'll count that as a bit of badness. But I don't think the badness makes it good, if that makes sense.

This makes my eyes hurt trying to focus. Which is decidedly bad; so congrats on that. The image has a ghostly feel to it, which I'm rating as a good thing.

See, I kind of like images like this, where the motion of the camera and the light (did you use a flash?) make interesting patterns. So ... bad but not horrid, and definitely trending to good to my eye.

That's unattractive. Reasonably composed and the DOF is nice, so not truly awful.

The result here is an interesting abstract. Which is good (I especially love that yin/yang object on the upper left). So I guess my interpretation of the image's badness, and there has to be some for this challenge, depends on what would have been a "good" capture of the scene. And I have no way of knowing that. So let's assume a middling degree of badness that made it to good. (BTW, my head hurts from trying to figure out how to vote on this!).
