 I took this shot tonight, playing with different looks to movement and motion of my kids football game, I think there is beauty in this shot, its not always whats crystal clear and crisp that makes a good piece of art, its color, movement, etc. I really like this one, just my opinion.

Very, very nice. I'd consider purifying the slightly muddy foreground green. Then again, maybe not... Really nice work.

Oh, I agree in the beauty of this moment. Despite the blur of the movement, you can see him clearly enough and it almost gives him a powerful sense with all of the action around him. Great shot.

Now that's my kind of shot! Very nicely done. If you want to see other examples of movement blur type shots, check out my portfolio.

This is what you call 'flash and blur' photography which I happen to really like with some subjects. In my opinion this really is a great shot,I would have been proud if it were mine!

great use of showing the runner escaping such chaos! Great use of this effect, I might have to reinact this

Great shot, with his head in the top 1/3 of the photo all the motion seeme to play around that center point. The strong saturation works well in this shot. It is like a cross between and abstract and a snapshot.

It's very good. I can see the football and a bit of the player's face and shoes. That's enough to let me know he's running for a goal. Then all the clashing helmets in the background just crack me up(oh, a pun). Really they add a lot to the picture. Good job.
Did you notice slippy's face in an army hat halfway up on the left?

I was all set to say the blur was too much, but the more I looked at it, the more it grew on me. It's actually quite a beautiful artistic shot. There's enough of the ball-carrier's face visible to give it some personality and emotional impact. The colors are nicely saturated. All in all, a top-notch image!
