Hi Alan – Yes, I think this is great! I would be happy to have something like this in my portfolio. I also have no idea what I am looking at, which I appreciate. Since you said shimmer, I am assuming that means water sparkles or something similar. You could consider a crop off the bottom, although I think the full version you shared works nicely, too. I also think you could clean up a few speckles in the main dark channel to make it feel just a bit more graphic. I think this could also work flipped horizontally, as that flow works nicely, too. Otherwise, I think this works really well as an abstract photo.
Thank you for sharing this photo for my guest critique!

Impressionistic, stylized, abstract, alternating motion and stillness… I find it both intriguing and interesting.
And beautiful!
Thank you, Laura - much appreciated!
