Curious to know which one people prefer if any.
Feel free to comment on or critique any element of these images. Thanks!

I prefer the first one. there's a real sense of vertigo and being dragged into the photo. I like it.

# 1 for me as well.

I prefer the explosion of colour in the first one, but also like the people walking toward the camera (as opposed to away) in the second .

+1 here Marko...I'm really liking your interpretations of in camera motion blur!

[Marko]

Thanks so much for the comments!

Just beautiful Maestro. Both great. #2 seems more casual.

I think if I happened upon this scene AND had my camera I would have be to excited to speak! I Love low light and you did an incredible job
of capturing the moment, love them both

I like number one better, but it makes me dizzy lol.

I like #1 best. Could be because since the people are walking away, it adds to the 3d effect of the receding lines. Also, I usually find it a bit distracting to see faces but no facial details - shot #2. Love the colours in both.
