Cool motion blur but not abstract enough.

Fun shot! nicely done. I would have been temped to crop out some of the twigs/weeds to make it a little more abstract.

This is an action shot that should be much slower - it's not abstract though.

GREAT job showing motion! Maybe a tighter crop on the squirrels would give it more of an abstract look.

Given the season, I think they're doing a bit more than just having fun. Pretty sure the one on the right is copping a feel in preparation of later escapades.

Abstract is: art in which the subject is represented by shapes and patterns rather than by a realistic likeness

Though the squirrels are in motion, the picture in its whole lacks the abstract.

Certainly abstract motion! Well captured.

I love the motion captured in the "moving" fur juxtaposed against the stillness of both the foreground and background. Excellent composition.
