| Sorry, but this doesn't work for me at all. The image is blurred to almost obscurity. There are so many more settings that would have served the title so much better. |

| A powerful image...usually I am not all that fond of motion blurs because they tend to feel a bit gimmicky...bit in this case, it totally works. The warm browns are also quite nice, again...a powerful and at times....a brave image...well done. |

| I like what I think you tried to do with this image, and I like the sentiment. I think it meets the challenge well, but (IMHO) the technical execution could use a little work. Most images I've seen with the blurred kinda "warp speed" effect have a focal point that is very sharply focused. The cross is not as sharp as I think it needs to be for this effect to work the way you were attempting. (At least my interpretation of your goal.) I like the sepia tones and the outer blurred figures are good. I also really like the composition/crop you chose. This is one of those images that almost, but not quite, accomplishes a cohesive and well executed approach. Great try, but I think most voters will probably count off for some of your technically accurate portions as well as those that didn't quite make it. Again, I really like what this photo almost is... Just my 2 cents, so you can throw them out the window if you'd like! :-) 4 |

| Not a fan of this extreme blur, hurts the eyes. Also image doesn't say "family" to me. |

| I like this a lot. If the cross was a little more in focus, it would make the blur come to a point even more. 9 |
