This ivy climbs a stone wall in the lower gardens of the historic Cuttalossa Inn which is sadly boarded up and for sale as are many historic restaurants along River Road on the Pennsy side of the Delaware.

This is wonderful. I just love how it inhabits that tiny space between the explicit and the abstract; not quite either one, and yet both. I'm a big fan of images that get at the essence of their subject, and I don't care at all about the 1 second bit (this could actually be 1/100sec or 5 minutes). So it's an 8 from me.
For me the strength of the photo, besides the lovely result, is the mixture of focused and blurred components. From a distance, where the focused parts blur a bit, the composition is very good, too. Best of class.
I doubt if the voters will appriciate your photo, but I do for sure, alas I can't vote. I love the noise, the colors and the composition. I would have given you a 10. Very nice shot.
