Sweet smiles, they look to be having a good time. . I like the woman's expression in the foreground.

Fun motion blur in an abstract way, but how does this connect to the challenge?

This is where I read about the history of the song and it's a pretty good description of the incident which happened on June 21, 1964. Paul Simon recorded this song in 1965, according to many sites I found so I think it fits.

Oooooh ... I'm a little surprised anyone else even know of this song. I put the lyrics in my notes too, because I figured most people wouldn't know what it was about.

I didn't know it was specifically about Goodman (thanks for the info), though I know of another song (by Tom Paxton) called "Goodman and Schwerner and Cheney" about the same event.

Hmmm ... I wonder if it really is about Goodman, because the info I have is that the song is from 1963 -- if he was killed in 1964 that doesn't make much sense, unless Paul Simon is a prophet as well as a tunesmith ... or else some date info is wrong somewhere.

Interesting... DNMC, but an interesting composition, and it works in a very good abstract.

I like the composition of the image with the subject on the right side & bokeh. I agree that the focus is a tad soft on the eyes.
cheers,

Very fitting for the song, and deserving of the dual cutout/Posthumous recognition. Congrats!

Getting mistaken for Cutout has got to make this a successful entry for you, regardless of the score! Originally I'd given this a 5, but bumped it to an 8 after it grew on me.
