Hmmm... well, ya learn something new everyday... Didn't think motion blur was illegal in Advanced Editing. I love this shot and agree it's a shame.

Good ole Queensland Rail :) Great capture and I like the motion blur, it seems to be at odds with the train, but it looks cool.

i really like the panning effect. At least I hope that was the result of panning and not photshopped. Please tell me it's panning.

Wonderful image! Must have been on a parallel running train at the time? The motion blur is great - makes you feel like you're moving while viewing this. Nicely done. Good luck in the challenge.

is this a pan or is this post? It's a great pan if it is and I don't even know if you can do stuff like that post but this looks awesome either way.
