While it does contain a zoom blur, it doesn't really convey 'motion' to me as much as it does a simple static scene being stretched. While that would certainly mean that the photograph itself is 'in motion' in a sense, the scene still plays out as static and unmoving.

I like this lens effect - excellent - not too abstract, but it's enough, imo.

Great motion blur but not the best abstract shot. 6

I need to have something stationary and clear in order to get a sense of the motion...

Is this what they call 'fast shopping'? Nice abstract motion.

I like how all the lines converge toward the top... great effect. I am assuming that you zoom in or out during the exposure.
