I took this photo at sunset (obviously) and jarred the camera at the end of the exposure.
Processing: I made four different levels layers and selectively blocked out and let in certain parts. Then I sharpened selectively, and here we are.
I'm predicting a low score on this one. Probably around a 5. These are some of my comment predictions.
"I wish the trees were sharp"
"Maybe you should have used a tripod"
"I would have liked to see it without the jarring effect"
"Meets challenge: 2

Do I get a ribbon if I guess right?

I actually like the abstract/surreal feel the jarred exposure gives. The colours and movement create quite a mood. I think this will end up being a love/hate type of shot, though from me at least it is a love.
I don't know if the jarred exposure was accidental or if you did it on purpose. Either way I like the way it turned out gives a nice impressionistic feel.
