It's interesting, but not very abstract. It also seems a little dark.

Interesting idea, and abstract enough for the challenge, but it doesn't catch my interest very much. Perhaps if it wasn't so bright on the left side and you played with the contrast a little more...

Interesting photo, and I liked the background, but I consider this more blurred motion than abstract.

Ooops, forgot to check back on this one.

Definately don't do a white mat. It would be jarring with such a soft, dark picture. I'd be tempted to do a black mat and black frame.

You could try a very thin inner mat with one of the sunset colors, a black outer and black frame, but I think that or anything else would draw attention to the framing--this picture should stand on its own.

originally gave it a seven, but my son said it should be an 8, so I bumped it up.

I love the picture, but I do think it would have been better with him off to one side instead of exactly on the line. Very nice, though.
