Funny. I was going to comment that there are certainly going to be unbelievers on the validity of this image, and there it is - the validation stamp. ;^) I finally have a lens that I can zoom while capturing an exposure and had a chance to play with it the other day. I recognized this in your image immediately.

I really like the choice you made to do this. Yes the yellow is quite bright, but it helps balance out the darker tones around the sides. The streaks at the bottom around the persons legs are wonderful. Did I mention that I like this? :D

Good luck in the challenge. It will be interesting to see where you end up.

That's a good generic title. I like it better than "...". The picture is nice. It's the first one I'm voting on and that always makes it hard for me, but I like the zoom blur and I think the photo works as an abstract. 7 for now.

Very abstract and "artsy" - rain isn't the first thing that comes to mind when looking at it, though.

Comment by posthumous:
is that a zoom blur? beautiful!! A rush of light in darkness substitutes for the rush of rain. Obscuration filters the visible world down to a lone figure who represents nothing so well as rain. 10

A nice "drugged out" effect - by zooming during shot?
