Is that a nuclear bomb going off in the city? :)

The blown area in the photo should be distracting to me but somehow this shot works well. I like the blurred subjects as well. Nice capture.

too blurry for my tastes

the blown our lights on the left are very distracting

Very interesting perspective but seems overexposed and not sure I care for the blurred effect

For some reason I really like this photo!

Very interesting shot. I love the artistic feel, but I am struggling to determine what it is. For me it would help if there were at least one small area where I could figure out what was going on and then the rest could be this artistic feel.

Composition is ok. The choice of subject matter is ok. The image quality is a little below average. Has potential of being really creative. - 5

Very interesting capture. Unusual choice of framing for this subject.For the most part I really like the blur. I kind of wish there were at least one person in fairly sharp focus. I'm not crazy about the really hot spot at the back left corner of the frame.

i like the idea, but i wish that something in this shot was in focus

I like the additional movement. Life does feel like this after work on those long days. Good job.

There are so many elements in this photo that make it a good concept, but which have counted against it working properly. There is so much movement happening that it is hard on the eyes, maybe croping out the first guys who is sorta face on would have helped with this. The other main issue is the flare from the sunset is it. it has wiped out a number of elements, that would have made the picture work. ( or as my partner says its interesting it makes you wonder what the ???? it is) :)
