I really want to see how this does in a challenge! I was taking photos of fire spinners on a hill, and I've got a load of properly focused ones with a dramatic skyline in the background, but I think this is the most interesting photo I took all evening. I get the feeling it'll do terribly, but it strongly appeals to my sense of aesthetics, so I'll just go with it.
Editing: crop, usm, neat image, add border. The colours haven't been altered in any way.

You are a light painter! :) As far as interests, this picture has tons of it. Maybe a bit busy on the bottom compared to the top, but wonderful style. The color palette is terrific. I still don't understand "1's" in a Free Study. Overall a very intriguing image. Nice shot.
A very creative entry for a free study. Most photographers equate images like this with a mistake they have made when taking an image (Oh crap, I forgot to reset my shutter speed). Although when done intentionally for artistic purposes, most photographers think to themselves "That doesn't take much skill, all they have to do is use long exposure time" or "Is that all they could come with". Either way, the score will not be pretty, as you can attest. Please continue experimenting and learning but be careful what you select for a free study.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique.
Fantastic picture. Got more votes than mine, which is no big dig, but deserved to get more than most. Such is life, or such is dpc, but, fortunately, not life.
The next applicant for team suck membership has to pick and cut out an object or two from one of their own pics and paste it/them onto this. Or not.
Heh. Your comments sum things up pretty well. Posthumous is the anti-indicator. If he loves your shot, put that in the bank and know your score won't be high. However, it means you took a chance on something that didn't fit the typical mold. I speak from personal experience in this exact challenge. :)
Anyway, I like your shot. Good for you for entering it!
