Tried out a new spot at Sky Manor on Saturday. I pretty much pulled over on the side of the road, for better lighting in the morning. I tried some pans also. They turned out alright I'd say.

Really fine series! I notice something different... are you messing with the saturation, or did you get a filter, or... ???

........slow down your shutter speed more to get a more pronounced effect of the background blur...... Cool

These shots are fine, but don't really show any speed from panning........ Cool

If you slow down the shutterspeed even more, don't you run the risk of a blurred plane? Some of these are allready a bit less sharp. It's tricky business, isn't it? I tried it at Schaffen, but the results aren't good. More practice is what we need!

Great effort and some pretty models! Wink

It does take some practice and luck, but with todays digital cameras you can shoot lots and not worry about cost. Sometimes drive mode is your best friend, especially if you have a fast auto-focus. Remember this one ? Shot under an overcast sky at ISO 200 for 1/60 at F: 8 .........you can go even slower (shutterspeed 1/50 to 1/30 even) for slower moving subjects....... Cool
