Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Motion Blur III (Basic Editing)
Camera: Nikon D3
Lens: Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM for Nikon
Location: Singapore
Date: Oct 27, 2008
Aperture: F11
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/40s
Galleries: Sports, Action
Date Uploaded: Oct 27, 2008

Panned at 230mm focal length (used my Sigma 150-500mm OS) with OS on.
I am sure some of the voters will comment on the blurred arms , in-line skates. Well it was intentional , which was the reason why I chose a shutter speed of 1/40s which would definiltely blur the dynamic arm & leg movements. The shutter speed selected also gave me the opportunity to create the streaked background.

Score prediction : no way , these days it is too tough to predict a score!

I like how the face and body are sharp, and the rest of the image is blurred. Shame the left hand is cropped off, but apart from that it has good composition.

A very nice panning shot. Kinda crowded in the background in places. The trees are cool!
