Good panning shot. I'm not entirely sure about the angle, but it's different.

Not wild about the angled comp. Pretty good pan on the car.

I've never been a fan of these types of shots, and they are becomming overdone on DPC...the angle doesn't add anything...clear and sharp, with good background blur.

I love this one. I love how you were able to show the motion while keeping the car perfectly focused! Great colors, and the angle really enhances the photo. Great job!
