I like the motion in this picture, it really emphasizes the simile, well done.

Cropping the wheels seems a little strange. Good focus on the panning.

Darn! I miss the bottom of the wheels. *sigh*

I love the rest of it. Perfect for the challenge.

The motion blur in the background and on the legs is lovely. Nice job. The bottom is cropped a bit too much though. The rest of the wheels in the shot would have looked a little better.
