 I took this picture at the Seattle Glassblowing Studio using my friend\'s Nikon D70. I borrowed it for vacation and I love dSLRs. I\'m seriously impressed with the results of the pictures I\'ve taken, especially this - which I took accidentally with a slow shutter speed.

No editing except resize.

But errr...playtime?

I liked this alot. The color is great and the subject is clearly defined. But...we cant really immediately tell without title what we are seeing. Also it does not reflect theme of "play" no matter how much fun working with molten glass may be. so its a great shot just not great here.

Playtime?? This photo seems to miss the challenge IMO.

Looks like you were panning, probably intentionally, but it doesn't work here, as most of the image is just annoyingly blurred and motion is not a major feature. Sharper, less blur, tighter crop, would be better.

Really out of focus. If you were trying to do a reflection in glass, you need to at least add one element that places this as a reflection and not just a badly focused image.

This would have so been a 10 if the blower was in complete focus.

There dosen't appear to be any one focus point or any way of telling what is happening with out the title.

Nice colors, but a little too much motion for my taste.

Subject matter here really seems to have a lot of potential, so it's a shame we can get a closer view of what the guy in red is actually doing and that so much of the photo is blurred.

it's a blurry shot of people avoiding the photographer...

This is playing?

Something in the picture needs to be in focus.

Too out of focus to really see what is happening here.
