Those are very strange looking vehicles, I'm curious what they're used for, or is it just racing? Nice action shot.

An interesting action shot. Did you use selective desaturation? Not sure it works.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice try at an action shot, like the desaturation of the background. Focus could have been a bit sharper.

Nice alignment of the orange cars
  Photographer found comment helpful.

nice panning but Id prefer option of non-selective colours and also the composition is a bit tight....


cheers ;)

selective coloring works, was it then saturated or is that the actual color?

Very tight in the frame, the desat works decently but would be nice to give them more breathing space considering their speed.
