Help anyone??? The sun was just about to dip below the horizon and the ligth was so orange...thus the strange colour of the dog. Any pointers would be appreciated. #480760Renaee Dimond July 09, 2006
Thanks Willard...this shot was a bit of a fluke really....the others turned out completely blurry #3005949Mike Rubin July 10, 2006
Great job. The lighting adds to the image. #3007017Jagadeesh Andrew Owens July 10, 2006
The lighting is STUPENDOUS!! I think that trial and error is the way to go with panning...different shutter speeds and practice, practice, practice... #3007998Renaee Dimond July 10, 2006
Thank you Mike & Sipho for your comments..I love action shots so I'll be getting plenty of practice :) #3010541Dennis Flanagan July 10, 2006
The focus could have been a bit sharper but I really like the light. If you had a tripod handy to keep the horizontal plane it may have helped. But overall it is very good, a good sense of speed is dramatized. #3010773Renaee Dimond July 11, 2006
Thank you for your comment Dennis :) #3015338Donna Davia July 11, 2006
The smooth water in the background just won't blur the way other backgrounds will when you pan. When you pan against objects (flowers, tall grass, buildings) you get a specific blur accross the plane that makes it look like whatever you are shooting is really flying. Otherwise it's a great shot. Focus is pretty crisp on the eye with lots of motion in the legs. If you have kids, ask them to ride their bikes back and forth in front of you for practice. #3015530Renaee Dimond July 11, 2006
