 Taken through the windshield during torrential rain just as lights had been turned on in the stores...I liked the graphics of this image; however, being a realist, I know that abstracts do not fare well with voters...crop, levels, curves for clipping, usm

post challenge: thank you for the positive votes, especially the 5 tens.

This looks like vehicle break lights but that would mean your camera was being held at a 45 degree angle. That in itself is not bad but the white pole going up the middle makes me think that this photo is in it's correct orientation.

So with that in mind I'm not sure what the orange colored lights are?!! Cool blurry effect. -Brandon

That makes for a nice abstract.

Very pretty abstract. I like the colors and the diagonal lines.

This is cool but I can't see it doing very well here, there's not a lot of sympathy for abstracts like this, good luck!

Nice abstract. I did a similar shot at a red light in rush hour. I'm not a fan of square crops, but that's more of a personal preference thing than any flaw of your entry.

Outstanding capture. I know it will not do as well as it deserves, this is my choice so far for the blue. Creative, energetic, unique.
