Very pretty colors, but more motion blur than abstract for me.

Quite beautiful. It's a seascape and a landscape, but there's no point at which one becomes the other. 9.

This is excellent! The colours are beautiful and you definitely showed abstract motion. Even your title is similar to what artists name their abstract artwork.

Lovely abstract motion, sets ones mind at ease. Makes me think of paintings of Seurat. Summer in the country, blooming heather. Very nice.
