great colours...I was going to say it lacked sharpness, but I think the blur suits this shot

The foreground lights might have made this a more interesting photo but they are too faint and hardly visible.

I really like this composition and crop. The colors are great, and the shallow DOF works really well. Good job.

First impression - Not much motion going on here

Overall this is a very nice image. I don't think it meets the challenge very well. I don't get a sense of motion even though the hair is blurred due to the slow shutter speed.

There also appears to be dust on you sensor. There are distracting elements in the shadow area of the hair and on the face.

The composition is very good. The eye is an excellent focal point, and cutting the nose and mouth in half emphasizes the hair over the face.

The upper right corner is complete blown out. It doesn't bother me but some of the DPC voters may have issues with it.

Neat Image looks a bit overdone for this image.

This shot probably would have done much better in a different challenge.

I hope this was helpful. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

i like the city lights but it could have been better cropped down a little to get rid of so many empty spaces
