I thought at the time that I had invented the panning with 1/15 sec.shutter speed!

Thank you for your attention dear colleagues!

it's all about movement.

I recall reading a book which said that photos of horses running don't display them as well in movement as painting do, as the natural movement of legs seems frozen.

I think in this photo the ground should have remained static.

Talk about moving pictures, you've got one here.  Thanks for all your recent comments. The last series was kind of a fluke as I haven't done much and had to force my lazy self to go out. Behold what was found. Kind of exciting to see what is out there waiting for us to behold.  Thanks again, take good care my friend, rek.

Hi Pierre,

The fact that this is a film image , I like it even better.

While the lens is not a telephoto one, you still were able to isolate the subject well.

Very nice work my friend.

Best Regards, Uncle Mike

Isolated from the background as Mike says, yet blurred in motion . a very interesting and effective approach, bravo

I like the effect in this one too, cool and creative. I will try your technique on a formula one shoot next time at the track.

Great work.

Best regards Tore

Well if it is ancient Pierre, you certainly did a fine job of capturing the feeling of 'speed'! My brothers were into this sport as teenagers and they did not quite escape without a few bruises, but they certainly loved the 'thrill of it all'. You certainly have given us a great example of what that just might be!

Well done!

Sincere regards, Gail

It certainly communitcates motion.  the blown out yellows and whites make it seem like such a bright day, as well.  best, jamie

Hi Pierre!

 

This is not a photo, maybe some colour mixing...

Nevertheless, as I like motocross and painting, the result is not so bad...

Bravo za ovaj action shot što bi rekli komentatori. Brzina, dinamika, rizik i adrenalin, sve na jednom mestu. Malo li je? I još, uhvaćeno filmašem, Pero. Ubava fotka.

Excellent action photo,

Shot in old good 'analog 'days,

It took me a lot of patience and rolls of films

to achieve something which wasn't even close to this,

Pierre,Congrats -5 years later,,,

BR,

I remember I set 1/15 sec for the whole film and I was panning the bikers!

 

Thanks for your visit, Zbigniew!

 

Cheers
