Nice light.

I would prefer your outtake. It still has a feel of the night cityscape without anything literal in it.

I really like your choice of motion blur here, Peter. A bit different from other takes (which may have hurt you somewhat score wise) but I fully expected to see this on one the front page

Huh. This was my top pick. Figured for sure to see it in the Top 5. Got close. Not quite as abstract as other entries, but something about the clean lines and control of movement that made this work for me.

The stark contrast in color between the sky and the reflection are a bit off-putting, at least to me. Makes it feel overworked and manipulated. Maybe the color is actually that way with the naked eye at the time of capture? Don't know. The other bit that showed some PP residue is the canyon wall (upper right) and the blue sky. Looks like a strong selection line. Makes the blue sky, I don't know, feel more contrived? Wonder how this would have come across in B&W?

Excellent! Would have done very well in the Shapes in B&W challenge as well.
