Car Wins By A Nose

    First attempt at panning with my new DSLR in Oct. 04. Saw him at the last minute, lifted my camera and prayed that it worked.

      Freaky how in focus that guy is, spot on.

      It almost looks photoshopped, it's so unreal in appearance. Nice job moving your camera!

      Nope, not photoshopped (other than level adjustments). I actually took this on the first day I used my Canon digital rebel. Got really lucky!

      were you panning with him or in a car?

    6. Carrie Musgrave | Livebabylive.com (87 months ago | reply)

      I was standing on the sidewalk near Queen and John...just saw him at the last minute.

      i know this is an older post, but i am new to flickr and just getting to know the site, your shots are great, i like them all but this one is my favourite due to how difficult it is to capture perfectly, well done.
