 I was out shooting for the late night challenge, and I stopped here to do the shot for late night, and I think it fit in with the Emotions theme.

Took this definition straight from the dictionary...

e·mo·tion ( P ) Pronunciation Key (-mshn)
n.
A mental state that arises spontaneously rather than through conscious effort and is often accompanied by physiological changes; a feeling: the emotions of joy, sorrow, reverence, hate, and love.

I bet it gets torn up though, even though its PART of the definition.

I overexposed it by 2 stops.

That's a great photo-op spot. Good idea to do it at night and I like that you had the guts to centre it.

Nice shot, good motion blur and I like the starburst effect. Background is too cluttered though for this to really shine.

Nice late night shot. Only problem for me here is the lighting that fades off at the L and O vicinity. 7

Take a picture that captures an emotion. Well I really guess you did. You met the challenge uniquely with a shot that deserves at 10. Good job and good luck!

It'd have a little more impact with a fill light on the word "love".
