This is so artistic. I really do love how you made just the car blurred and colored so vibrantly.

Heh - this is perfect with the selective saturation only of the vehicle whizzing by. It neutralizes all of the busy stuff going on around it. You could crop it pano style and eliminate some of the lines and poles in the upper half and that might be cool too cause it would still include the other cars. Just thinking out loud.

The selective desat works well on this. Extra oomph to the streaks from the vehicle. Cool capture.

Neat... there's motion in this wings, which is very cool, and the sepia reinforces not just the antique quality of the imagery, but the impact overall.

Crystal, firstly I LOVE the tones of this image - they are perfect. The girl being without arms is really confronting to me, not sure why, but then that look or pure pleasure on her face reassures me - SMILE!

So very, VERY clever - well done!
