Glad to see you are still around :)

I like the motion in this and I like the variations of light on the wall behind it. Is this a night shot? Great capture of the colors!

I like the concept and the blur. But the straight-on angle is a little dull.

I love the motion. Since participating in the blur side challenge, I have developed such an appreciation for the beauty that the effective use of blur adds to a photo! Really well done.

There is always US flags in every challenge, no matter what the challenge is. I like the movement of the flag, but not very original i'm afraid.

I don't like the blur, but technical aspects are spot on

I like the idea of this picture, but I do not care for the "motion". It does not look real. It looks like something done in photoshop.

I like the effect, and the idea
But It isn't sufficient for it to be centered in the composition, for me

A good composition - the only thing I think would improve this pic is if the flagpole was exactly 90 degrees upright (it looks like it's leaning a little to the right).

Nice effect and choice of background.
