I wonder if you have your camera rigged to the bumper with a remote to set it off? This is half the fun, you know.... the guessing at the set-up. Anyway, this is a gorgeous shot and a sure top ten winner. 10.
This is a FANTASTIC shot! I'm not sure how the voters will react regarding whether or not this is classic "Motion Panning", but a fantastic shot here. Well done! (I'm presuming this camera is mounted to the vehicle.)
One could argue that this doesn't meet the intent of the challenge...ie not panning. ( I assume camera is atached to the car.) Really a nice shot though.
I really like this shot but I am bothered by the issue of it not being Motion Panning. It appears to be more Motion blur with no real panning to it. I could be wrong, I'll look back after the challange to see if you give the details.
Motion panning is not the same thing as motion blur. The idea of panning is that the camera moves to keep the subject at the same point in the frame. Having the camera attached to the subject isn't quite the same thing ;)
This is one of those "technically" great shots that, unfortunately, I've seen too many times. I suspect that it took quite an intricate set-up to accomplish, but I just can't give it a "10." Nonetheless, original or not, looking at how crisp and well-achieved it is, I can't give it anything less than a "9."
Really nice picture. Could almost be a real BMW advertisement (the only problem is you can't really tell this is a BMW). I like the touch of green next to the front wheel. The color of the top part of the background is too close to the color of the car. Would've been better with a little more contrast.
I was in a mean scoring mood for this challenge. This is the only 10 I gave and I expect to see you with blue. I've wanted to do this shot for a long time, but am just too lazy. Maybe this summer.
Nice idea, and the end result looks good. I especially like the colours. The concept, in my opinion, of motion panning is that the camera is on a fixed location (such as in the hands or on a tripod) and can be rotated to follow a moving object. In this case, it looks like the camera was mounted on the moving object and, therefore, not panned. The overall effect is similar and your result is perhaps more striking.
Great shot, one of the stand out this challenge. My only gripe being that it is a little bland in the top 3rd but very well done. Please let me know how.
