 Taken out of the window in early evening light at 100kph. Just showed my family and it is not liked. I'm not expecting much from voters and commenters then either. But still, I really like it so it will entered.

Although it is not obvious, what I was trying to achieve was for the foreground to be blurred from right to left as the car was going so fast. The background is blurred in the opposite direction due for the panning of the camera. The cows remain relatively in focus as the panning is timed to stay on them. It was enjoyable to shoot as it was always a bit of a mystery on how the shot might turn out and that I would only get the one chance to capture the scene. I might get some ND filters so I don't have to wait till just before it's dark to do this.

beautiful shot. I do the same thing with trees, but it's better with cows.

It's funny, I was your first comment and you were mine. I noticed a big leap in my score also when you commented thanks so much :)

I hope you weren't driving when you took this ;)
