Challenge: Motion Panning (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Nikon D200
Lens: Tamron SP AF 28-75mm f/2.8 XR Di for Nikon
Location: Wakefield Park, Goulburn, Australia
Date: Feb 4, 2006
Aperture: f 13
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/50
Galleries: Sports
Date Uploaded: Feb 6, 2006

my first try at panning with my D200
my Tamron 28-75 2.8 is not long enough for this type of shot, but lucky there is room to crop with the file size in the D200
shot was taken in raw and converted with auto setting plus bumped up exposure and saturation in Adobe camera raw
then edited in photo shop CS2
further saturation boost

Very well done. Excellent job on panning, and I like the angle of the shot very much. The background looks great too.

This is very well done...but why do people either crop or compose shots with cars at an unnatural angle?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very sharp. Nicely done.

Wonderful. Good clear subject. Nice motion lines from the blur. Well done!

Great capture. True panning. The tilt makes me a little uncomfortable... have to rotate my head to balance... but one of the better pans in the challenge.

Nice job of panning with the car but I can't say I care much for the tilt.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/09/2006 10:54:07 PM
Nice grab! I like the tilted crop too.

Very nice. Sharp and good panning technique.

Nice sharpness and colors. Would be better without the odd angle.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Well done, clear shot, good work.

Nice shot. Great sharpness on the car and I like the dynamic angle you have shot at. Perhaps would have cropped off the bottom of the image to remove the grass verge and get you a bit tighter on the car.

One of the better panning images in the challenge though

Great job. Love the rotation you gave it, focus, background is just right. Was trying to find something wrong but couldn't. Looks like a winner to me. :D

perfect capture, you'd expect to see something as good as this in any car mag. I'd love to see the EXIF data on this.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/08/2006 04:11:33 PM
clean and crisp. One of the best ones so far. Very high score from me.

02/08/2006 02:44:45 PM
The car is sharp; the background is simple; the angle suggests speed. Good technique.

It's fantastic!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/08/2006 04:39:06 AM
I don't like the unnatural angle of your picture, it takes away some of the speed sensation. The car is amazingly sharp, great shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/08/2006 04:07:13 AM
Perfect photo! but the motive is very usual..still very well done I think:-)

Nicely done. I like the angle. Colors look great.
