This is really neat. I like what you did to it. It actually gives the effect that the wind is smooth.

I have no idea how you can show a wind in a photograph like this...but, in my opinion... this wasn't it. Looking at the photo for 5 minutes knowing what it was supposed to be gave me the feeling of movement of the branches. But, other than that... it just looked out of focus to me.

However, I do like the photograph for it's aesthetic feeling of softness and comfortability. (6)

I think this is a bit of a stretch for the challenge. Lots of blur. Picture lacks a focus.

I really, really like this picture. Adding to favorites. Meeting the challenge is a bit of a stretch for me, so I can only give it 9.

I like how the motion blur here gives a feathery look to the composition overall. Great attempt to show silky/smooth where we might not normally see it.

I don't think that this entirely meets the challenge, but as a photo, it definitely is great. I like shots that blur the line between impressionism and photo-realism.

That is a very cool tree. It probably won't score well because it's a little too arty for DPC tastes, but never mind. I like the directional light and the feeling of the wind blowing things around.

Nice motion piece. I am not getting silky smooth from it though. Really cool lighting.

Good interpretation of the challenge, but...the photo doesn't quite convey it.
