slugged in the head by a boxing glove or foot

no post processing other than resizing

Agree with Armin that the uniform blur helps with the abstractness of this one. Well done Mark.

This is simply great!

Had there been just one slight hint of focus it would've been a major prize winner.

I really like the colour and the flowing motion in this. The blur really tells the story here well. - b.c.

This really gives the picture a sense of motion - good shot! ;-) CJ

Ditto what's already been said. I might crop out the bluish-purple area at the bottom, which seems to be a bit distracting.

I really like all the blur of red and that one spot of yellow.

This looks really abstract when you first look at it but almost immediately you can see what it is all about. A very effective shot with great color and motion! Well done, Markjay! ~Sharon
