Interesting gaze from the lead. At first I thought there was motion blur in the background, but it appears that this is a big crop and I'm seeing the noise. Who cares. I love that look.

Thanks everyone for their comments. I do appreciate them all. I am very pleased with this result. I think it did quite well considering it was my second entry (my first one bombed), and all the confusion about what abstract is. Some people think it is abstract while others do not.

Here is how I came of this photo. I was actually on the top level of a parking garage shooting some cranes adjacent (I really like cranes for some reason right now). I then noticed this building across the street and how with my angle the reflection led to the street below. Thought the warping windows and a long exposure would produce some neat results, and sure enough it did. All the windows with a mirror like reflection had their office lights turned off. The office in the image didn't, so I chose to focus mainly on that as I knew it would show in the exposure.

Nice reflection but hardly abstract...

Very enjoyable layers of abstraction, distortion, and reversals.

This is one of the images I was torn over - it's extremely clever, an excellant use of color, shutter speeds and the use of the window for different effects. On the other hand, I just don't like it for reasons I can't effectively articulate. So I rated it an 8 - I suspect others would probably rate it a 10 and it is certainly worthy of that - just not to me.

The lights definitely show motion, just not sure the whole composition is abstract.

Good eye to catch this... I really like how the windows distort the image... and the light streaks give a nice sense of motion.
