Not really abstract enough visually for my tastes, and the sense of motion has been nearly negated by the freeze-frame action.

Motion 5 Abstract 2. In my opinion the only thing abstract here is the color.

I appears that you are using a really quick shutter speed when the challenge would of suggested you either use a longer one to express motion, or move your camera.

This isn't abstract but it is a cool shot.

I've been using the definition: "Of, relating to, or being a style of art in which natural objects are not represented realistically." With this in mind, it really doesn't fit abstract, IMO. (I've actually seen a drink this color...)

Nice job showing motion, not sure if it's abstract.

A closer crop on the water would have highlighted the abstract effect.

Abstract is: art in which the subject is represented by shapes and patterns rather than by a realistic likeness.

Your photo looks more like a 'stopped' motion than an abstract motion. Maybe if it wasn't so obvious a glass full of liquid it would have tricked me into liking it more. Maybe a tighter crop of only the part with the green would have fit the rules better. That's a very nice part.

like the green liquid, but the background would have mean better if it was black 6

I guess there is motion implied by capturing the liquid's motion at a point in time, but in my view this does not fit the challenge category very well

Great idea - I wish it was a bit sharper and less grainy.
