I really love the compostion and the blur.. i think the motion blur is over done and i personally feel that the colors dont make this pic very appealing.. maybe a diff shade of color would make it more noticable..

The composition is great.

I'm not so sure I like the motion blur.
I would have liked to see the shot with real motion blur.

I don't mind the color but it seems a bit too dark.

I love the idea of the motion blur, but I think it might be a little heavy. I agree as well that it might be too dark. They have such fun and wonderful expressions on their faces, and I think the tone and coloring is at odds with the fun they seem to be having. Perhaps lighten it a bit, or maybe try it in color? I do love the composition.

This photo has a lot going for it and grabs your attention. Love the swing and of course 3 boys having a good time is excellent. I agree that the motion blur is a little overdone but the other thing is the boys faces/skin is overly soft. Would like to see the boys a bit sharper - maybe no processing at all on them. Also the color could be toned down. Would love to see your revision if you make one.
