Great Shot Alessandro and congrats on the blue!!

If such were obvious, I'd say the same thing. In this case the railing gives the whole thing away.

"This is not panning?!?!??! C'mon guys - can you explain me what is it? Even if I get a 6+ score it will be a very disappointing moment for me here on DPC..."

As I said in my original comment (in spite of giving you a 7), it is what I guessed it to be. You weren't motion panning (tracking a moving object with the camera from a fixed position). You were moving WITH the subject on the merry go round or whatever that is... so you were both "still" relative to each other.

So it's a GREAT image, but one that failed to implement the technique required. Oh well, congrats anyway on the ribbon.

Seems of the outer skin as well as under supports are straight lines.

Great idea, similar to another entry in another challenge. Problem is I'm having trouble seeing anything upside down, except maybe the cat...
