This is a beautiful shot - if ever I manage to capture one like this, I'll be well chuffed.

But the blur doesn't feature strongly enough for it to stand out as a "motion blur" photo. If it had been at a slightly different angle, and there had been, say, some obvious blur in the wheel spokes to impart a real sense of speed, then it would have been a different story.

A lovely photo, but not a "speed blur" photo.

A nice idea, but the foot is a little too blurred to create the effect that you're looking for, I think.

I like the use of the blur here - it speaks to the essence of what is heppening when a guitarist is working their fret board hard.

And keeping the guitar sharp, with all the blur in the hand, makes the shot technically well executed.

now, if the blur had been limited to the fingers, with maybe some conspicuous speed blur on some of the strings, that would have been a masterpiece.

The wind blur creates some interesting elements in this shot. but it doesn't quite "come together" for me, somehow.

It's been done once or twice before. But a pleasant enough urban landscape.

Holy motion blur Batman!

Maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see a lot of motion blur here...

A lovely shot. The sense of "turbulence" around the wings is great.

My first reaction was that I would have cropped it more tightly. But on reflection I think youve got it right. The sparrow looking on has creates just the right sense of "oh, I wanted some of that!".

A great idea, moderately well executed.

The blur "trail" of the eight-ball is maybe a little understated - but that's really just a question of taste. And it's a shame that the flourescent light reflection at the head of the table is so intrusive.

I like the blur effect on the cue. And I think that, considering that it was probably shot under conditions that we far from "studio", it's not a bad result.

I'm someone who's been known to go and sit by the rocks and watch the waves crash like this for hours. I think this shot captures the impact well.

I would have maybe tried to capture just a little more of the wave impact. Not moving it to the middle of the composition, obviously; but perhaps a little closer to the centre. And I'd have cropped more tightly - there's a lot of rock with not very much happening. You need a reasonable amount of rock to give the wave-crash some context, but there's a bit too much here.

But I do like the wave-crash. Just the right amount of blur.

Well composed. But a bit contrived for my tastes. And the "blur" is just an incidental part of the composition.
