Critique - Painting with Light

This past weeks critique was selected and critiqued by Corey Hochachka of Troglodyte Photography.  The topic was painting with light which could be taken as a theme, or a technique.  The traditional methods of Light Painting involve extra long exposures, and the use of light sources as a paintbrush.  There have been more and more experiments with light painting lately, and therefore many new modern techniques have evolved.  

The students have created some interesting images, and there are a few really great ones in this set.  Which of these images do you find yourself drawn to the most?
