the feel and movement of the image is very beautiful. However, it probebly would have done better in the motion panning challenge. Nice photographic work, regaurdless.

I don't know whether it will do well as an abstract, but I like it a lot. Nice tones and sense of movement.

you did a great job capturing the blurred motion. as this is an abstract i think it might have been better to exclude the recognizable foot in focus to the far left.

abstract?

I am sorry but this is not an abstract IMO, it is a close up long exposure.

Definition 1= Art that departs significantly from natural appearances. Forms are modified or changed to varying degrees in order to emphasize certain qualities or content. Recognizable references to original appearances may be slight. The term is also used to describe art that is nonrepresentational.

Definition 2=Not realistic, though the intention is often based on an actual subject, place, or feeling. Pure abstracion can be interpreted as any art in which the depiction of real objects has been entirely discarded and whose aesthetic content is expressed in a formal pattern or structure of shapes, lines and colors. When the representation of real objects is completely absent, such art may be called non-objective.

Comp needs work, blacks good whites barely in, nice texture, exposure needs work, light nice, overall could be better

Ok ... rugby is abstract I would be surprised if many people understand running around a muddy field chasing an eff shaped ball ... and to top it off call it sport ... hehehe ... that in itself is an interesting concept.
