Great creativity. Its brave to submit an image like this as I'm sure you either know or are finding out. Most people don't like the different images that break the rules. I do. Those are my favorite, and those kinds of photos make certain photographers stand out. While your photo is very creative (the first 3 in creativity for me so far), I think the compositional element isn't really there. It's the exact oposite of what most people have. I would work on trying different areas with different branch sequences, maybe zooming in during the exposure, or using a tripod so the branches are clear, or maybe using a slow shutter speed and flash. Experimenting with tons of ideas can really be fun.

The blue sky spoils it - the blue patches distract a lot.

Comment by dallasdux:
There have been a number of images (IMO) in this challenge where the subject comes off as blurred rather than as portraying Wind to the viewer. This image falls into that category for me.

I like the colors you have captured in the oranges, yellows, greens, and they almost form an abstract image. I just wish there was something that showed me more wind rather than blurred/moving image which can happen due to camera shake or if the photographer is moving rather than the subject moving.

Score: 5.

This shot is very thought provoking. I am assuming it is a hint at terrorism... I like how you shot from behind your subject, and being able to see her face is what makes the image (for me, anyway). 10

Very powerful, great contrast between the short, dark person and the tall, silver building.

this is fantastic...an outstanding architectural shot in its own right, but adding the foreground character makes this scene so much more...I'm really impressed with this.
