This was actually my favorite in the challenge. Lighting and palette are stunning. Though I really really like minimalism and the clean simplicity is what drew me to this immediately, I think I would like a little less space, maybe with subject off center. It's rare that I don't give a 10 to my top image, but this time 9 was my top. Congratulations on the HM.

Yes that's what I like too: there is a story behind all the blur.
Just great!

Great story-telling, dramatically enhanced by the blur. Wonderful perspective and ghostly colors.
One of three personal favorites of the challenge.

Like how the colour/black isolate the subject from the vague and possibly benign threat. Then again any "Here Comes the Dog" is bound to fetch me.
