I gave it a 9. It's a shame that so many people vote on challenge content and how they 'think' it was taken, rather than the quality and technical aspect of the picture. When I'm voting I always think, if it's not legal it'll be DQ'd.

I didn't HOLD it i MOVED it when the dart was falling... that's what panning is about isn't it ? :D

Did you hold the camera on it's side ? Because if you didn't, you wouldn't be panning, you would be tilting and your image wouldn't fit the challenge ;-) |

Ok... I will explain it to all those ubelievers over there. It actually IS motion panning, but if you could think a bit you would realise that you don't have to throw the dart.. The dart was falling vertically, my friend was dropping it and the background is a MAP... about 100photos. 1 chosen. Big thanks for the BELIEVERS :)This isn't about cheatin!! |

How do i know this is a moving dart vs a stationary one and a blurred background? :) I'd guess the latter. |
|

my personal opinion? it's too perfect of a shot, especially from a technical standpoint. without any blur or context from the background, it feels as sterile as something that comes from a lab. |
|

Not sure how to vote on this one. Doesn't look like a panned shot, the dart is way too clear and the background out of focus. Love the shot, just not convinced it is a true panned shot. If this is panned it is truely outstanding. I don't want to mark you low on something I'm not sure about, I'll compromise and give you a 7. Good luck! |

I keep looking at this and it seems like it is a "faked" motion pan. Create the background and setup the dart. There's no way that you could have gotten as tack sharp an image as this one. My thoughts ;) |

Nice shot. Clean, simple, nice looking backgrounds. Great panning effect also. |
|
|
02/13/2006 11:19:00 AM |
I'll bet that one was hard to get. |

Best panning shot in the competition hands down no questions asked....but...if I was to ask a question I would want to know how you accomplished this brilliantly focused shot...colors are beautiful |
|
|
02/12/2006 03:57:59 PM |
Great colour. How did you do this? (is the dart fixed?). |
|
|
02/12/2006 02:54:34 AM |
how on earth did you do this? brilliant...great work and true to challenge, well done |

Is that actually in flight or is it just laying on a glass table? |
|
|
02/10/2006 10:44:34 PM |
Wow this one looks like a winner. The coloring and perspective are wonderful. |
|
|
02/10/2006 10:41:39 PM |
Wonderful, I believe you have nailed the challenge. |

First off, I barely qualify as an amature. But I am starting to realy enjoy this photo stuff. I'm gonna give this a 9. I suspect it is the perfect motion panning pic, but. Could this have been done by using Macro at high shutter speed on a dart with a distant obscure background that is out of focus. Maybe a differant background that showed the "panning" would have been better. Just wondering as I am egar to learn. Cool pic dude. |
|

Either amazing panning, or just suspended and the background blurred. I can't decide! I'll give you the benefit of the doubt ... |
|

This would be fantasic if it were actually motion panning capture of a dart in flight. I'm giving you a high score, but I'm suspicious that it isn't what it seems to be. |
|
|
02/10/2006 12:47:38 PM |
I want to know how this was done, way cool. 8 |
|
|
02/10/2006 05:31:33 AM |
Very well done. Very difficult to get that dart sharp into flight, because it is so small. Curious how you did it (tried it myself, but totally failed, I sent it in anyway for comments that could possibly help me). 9. |
|
|
02/09/2006 05:13:06 PM |
Very nice capture...love the colors. |
|
|
02/09/2006 04:16:04 PM |
Just awesome. (9, and good luck!) |
|
|
02/09/2006 02:10:41 PM |
I like it... maybe a little more motion blur in the back ground though (I know that this is probably suspended though) |
|
|
02/09/2006 11:45:04 AM |
IS IT REALLY IN MOTION?IT IS DIFFICULT TO ANALYZE THE MOTION OF BACKGROUND |

how many takes? that's perfectly crisp. |

I'm struggling to vote for this one. it's one of my favourite shot in the challenge, but I struggle to believe it was achived with motion panning. That said, many photographers are capable of achiving things I wouldn't even know how to do. I'll try to remember to look this up after the challenge. |
|
|
02/08/2006 11:11:48 PM |
not sure there is motion, but I like it |
|
|
02/08/2006 10:52:58 PM |
Wow! It looks like the dart is just floating. Please tell us how you did this. |
|
|
02/08/2006 06:03:50 PM |
Nice colors and composition. Looks like background blur is due more to DOF than to (minimal?) motion panning. A slower shutter speed would allow for motion blurring of the background to be made more evident by longer streaks. |
|
|
02/08/2006 05:33:56 PM |
I like it! I cant really say why, I just like it! I like the detail and sharpness of the dart and the speed in the background! |
|
|
02/08/2006 03:28:46 PM |
Looks more like shallow depth of field than panning. |
|
|
02/08/2006 02:43:43 PM |
wow! how did u do that! it looks so cool! |
|

02/08/2006 02:03:36 PM |
I'm intrigued as to how this was done, as it would require an amazing ability to capture the dart so perfectly using a normal panning technique. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt. Well done. |
|
|
02/08/2006 01:59:07 PM |
Giving this an 7 for the technical merit: the dart is extremely sharp, especially considering this is a panning shot. As a composition, I don't think this is an interesting picture, though. |
|
|
02/08/2006 01:05:14 PM |
I'd like to see this hot uncropped |
|
|
02/08/2006 11:36:29 AM |
Very cool but blur looks like out of focus and very little like motion blur. Still pretty good. |
|
|
02/08/2006 11:17:59 AM |
so cool :D the border is a bit thick, but anyway its a really nice image, 7 |
|
|
02/08/2006 10:39:04 AM |
WOW!!! Love the rich coloration and tack sharp dart. |
|
|
02/08/2006 06:08:58 AM |
like it alot what a capture |
|

02/08/2006 02:14:35 AM |
Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a winner! 10 |

Great shot, just don't see the motion, rather looks like DOF... |
