Is it getting abstract in here, or is it just me?

    Love the second one, though I guess the first is blurrier. :):

    I like the abstract quality.

    Looking forward to seeing more from you! I've only submitted for one challenge myself and had a lot of fun doing it. I think these challenges are going to push me to learn more about my camera, plan out my shots, and keep my eyes open. I've been so lazy!

    Anyway! Enjoy!

    That's funny, I really like the first one - I like the spiral shapes that are being created in the upper righthand portion of the image. Thanks for the comments nonetheless, Looks like I've got a decision to make!

    I love both shots, but I think the first one conveys the blur theme more clearly...or should that be blurrily????

    Great abstracts. There are things I like about both, but I think I like the composition and position of the lines better in the second one.

    Great abstracts. I go with my first instints and I like the second one the best. Flows better than the first.

    Agh, you're a tough crowd... Its like trying to pick a favorite child!

    But you're right - while I like the shapes happening in the first image, the second has a better composition, and that carries more weight. The second one goes in!

    Thanks for all the help!

    I am such a sucker for red...I can imagine this photo 5feet by 7feet high gloss laminate floating in a deep shadow box mounted 6" away from the wall in a large corperate office entrance...yes this one please.
