I appologize for submitting this entry in the challenge. My frustration with the constant rain got the better of me. Believe it or not I took many other shots in the rain that were worse than this but that doesn't excuse this entry.

ok, i'm sorry if this comes across harsh, because i usually try to be as tactful as possible, but this image is really testing me. come on! yes, you have a blurred background, but other than the rain drops on the windshielf, it's all blurry. there is no subject! i can tell that you have a semi-decent camera and that you are using some type of post-processing software. you could have found just about anything to take a picture of that could have made use of this grayed out background other than shooting through the windshield. save shots like this for your portfolio, not for challenges, where the purpose is to grab the voter's attention and engage their imagination with your image, not to make them scratch their heads and wonder why you submitted what you did. all i can say here is better luck next time. (and if you don't think i know what i'm talking about, look at my lucky seven entry!)

Can't see any bokeh. Turn your wipers on. 2.

I don't think this qualifies as bokeh... neat picture though...

I know the feeling. Nice try but it just doesn't cut it for me.

This picture lack a focal point. Its all sort of blended and undefined. Maybe if there was one specific focal point it may have worked better.....
