Very, very nice! Textbook example of good motion blur! 10

Whoa! Slow down...I feel like I am getting sick.

Beautifully captured. I need to get off now : ) 9

wow, real nice sense of motion there, it sucks me in.

Good job on leaving the shutter open make the scene look busy.

I think your idea would have been better expressed if the traffic was moving and the trees and buildings were in sharp focus. I gave you a 4

Cool idea, but (in my opinion) this kind of shot needs to have a focal point that's actually in focus and still, so all the motion is pointing to something.

Camera shake methinks sadly does not replace long exposure blur.

If artistic impact was intended - sorry it does not work for me!

interesting, but it does ot appeal to me.

This is a very busy picture, I can see what you were trying to capture, the business of the urban life but it's just a little too busy for me. I understand where the blood in the title came from, I'm guessing all the red in the photo or just the flow of traffic but this really doesn't convey urban in an overall sense to me and just a bit too blurry for my taste.

the pulled zoom reminds me of the 'falling' shot in dreams & nightmares. there it was very effective in creating a surreal effect, but here I think it's jarring. it's one thing to have the cars moving but to have the entire landscape moving is very distracting.

Really pulls the eye into the shot. Nicely done. Good work.

Nice zoom pan. At least I'm assuming that's what you did. Anyway, nice shot!

I would have liked this better if the trees weren't moving.
