A veryt compelling effect. But motion blur? There is blur, certainly. But, given the subject matter, it doesn't communicate a sense of motion.

Colorful and meets the challenge but it's a bit too stylized for my taste.

Comment by SergeP:
would have prefered to have seen the flower sharper in the glass to, and blurrier in the background.

Comment by ohanapics:
I think this would have made a fine entry for the Desolation challenge. A couple of things about the photo. The natural framing on the right seems to be the tree with the ladder against it so the darker area beyond it doesn't seem to fit with the picture especially since everything is so close to us but beyond the tree it is further away and in darker shadow. I would also like to see a little breathing room at the bottom of the photo, it seems to be cut quite close to the junk there.

On a side note I do like how even though you have the desolation theme we also see life springing up around it in the form of the young trees.

I've seen a couple of these in this challenge and I like the effect. I think this one is very well done. Almost rays of light coming out of the flower--excellent.
