My vote goes to #5 briest. Hoping this movement is in peaceful (e)motion for good and reasonable things!
I love the colors. Usually you only get this with filters or heavy post image processing.

#6: Maemish I ireally love the light :)

But it was a hard choice. #1: netman was a serious contender but the pincushion effect and the beer can on the railing spoiled it ever so slightly.
Other contenders were:
#4: Fellfrosch - A good shot, if only a bit too dark and the white of the house slightly to the left of the centre bottom takes too much of the frame.
#5: briest - If the movement is what I think it is, then I would support it wholeheartedly, but alas the photo iteslf was not all that remarkable - other than the eerie blue colour.
#7: Bundyo - Lovely, peaceful location caught at a good moment, with the flying bug. You could have also mentioned the movement of the couple(?) in the rowing boat in the background. I would have preferred it not as a panorama, though.
#8: robthebold - I love the colours and the shadows of the low lying sun, but please, if you are taking a picture where people are the centre of attention, only seeing the back of all of them is kinda distracting. Just some of them looks like capturing a moment; all of them looks like you went out of your way to only show their backs. I understand the urge to protect their privacy but there are ways. For example, make them appear like they are there merely by accident, like the rowers in Bundyo's shot. You could achieve that for example by taking the picture when they are just rounding the corner.
#9: mosen - Another serious contender due to the mood of the picture rather than the picture quality, although the quality is good, too. I would have preferred if you aimed the camera a notch higher, to reduce the amount of ground in the foreground and expose the top of the tree in the background.

Gotta be #6: Maemish

The sunset, the color, the light on the spade handle and the shadows in the furrows. I think the presence of tools implies motion enough for me. Well done.

Nice pics, everybody.

Re: Phone Camera Competition October 2020: "Autumn Lights and Motion"
 

I vote #6: Maemish to, even though the motion is as bad as mine. :)

Re: Phone Camera Competition October 2020: "Autumn Lights and Motion"
 

The one that keeps catching my eye scrolling past the photos a few times is #3 catbus, so that's my vote :).

Re: Phone Camera Competition October 2020: "Autumn Lights and Motion"
 

For me it is #3 catbus.
Instantly takes me away and reminds that fall weather is not uniform even in europe :D
From photographic quality i would have chosen maemish or robthebold.

@Pichlo, thx for the nice words.
I attempted to keep the black shadow line below the trees centered. Ideal would have been if i had 1 meter more space to move back. But i was rubbing a wall already. A wider camera objective wold have helped to not cut off the trees and lamp on the right.

#7 Bundyo. I started to seach the fly he mentioned and was inside that picture for so long that it became real to me. The two boats, one black and one white, were not the motion for me. If you zoom in the top of the picture in the middle there is a whiter short line in the water which in my eyes seems like the rings in water done by a fish. And when the under the surface part of the lake becomes real, then the picture is filled with motion.

My vote goes... #2 eson

Did you find it?

Attachment 41332

Re: Phone Camera Competition October 2020: "Autumn Lights and Motion"
 

I never found it, myself, but I also couldn't find my glasses.

Would be even cooler if the fly showed up more than once in the panorama, like the same kid on both ends of the high school class portrait.
