From John down under:
Hi Howard,
Now there's a genuine expression of the theme if ever there was one! Good capture! The radial blur certainly draws attention to the subject and avoids distraction by all the rows of shoes on the shelves. However, I find the blur a bit unsettling and might find it a bit risky if I was not feeling too well, so the blur is a bit too distracting to my way of thinking. :o( Still, very effective response to the challenge of the theme. Say, your surname doesn't have anything to do with shoes, does it? If this is your wife, could that be why she married you? ;o)
Cheers, John

Ahh! Shoes! What man would not recognize the deep joy of such a hard find? I can also picture the distracted husband, carrying all the shopping bags, in his best smile saying "Yea, honey, I think you are right, they would go very well with the pink dress". Nice idea! and the radial blur works well in fosucing the attention where it should be
