Hmm...it does kinda look like sand. It is actually a motion pan shot a few inches from the floor. The white part is my sock-clad foot.

On the contrary. Judging by the voters' reactions, I'd say it was the perfect choice for a universally repulsive color.

I would like this much more w/out the border - both the color and the solidity of it clash w/ the rest of the picture.

Fairly well-defined noise and a more or less organised dark/light graduation. The border is ghastly, but deliberate. The blurry mess is in my own judgement, not knowing whether to vote 1 or 10. I ain't sayin.

personally i think it is an interesting take on the challenge and in some ways fits more than people might originally think (although i think Messy Blur would apply more ;)), but i actually have a revulsion for the colour you chose for the border... and the shot is secondary to it because of the eye being drawn towards it. A more neutral colour or even white or black would suffice and highlight the photo which is what you are submitting to the challenge.

Not a compelling image in the slightest. The border does not help.

I'm unsure on this fits into the challenge (IMHO). I REALLY don't like the green border. The subject is unknown so it's hard to tell if there is any blur. I don't find it very chaotic/disorganized because it's the same pattern from top to bottom except for the lightness. Personally I also don't find it to be very interesting or have any wow factor. I rated this a 2, sorry.

Sorry... I don't get it. I commend you for being different and taking a risk but I don't get anything out of the image.
