Soccer Panning by kwind

Soccer Panning

Taken yesterday at my son's soccer game. I suck at panning shots but there's something about this one that I kind of liked. I took about a 100 shots today, trying to get leaves falling mid air in a wind storm but none are worthy.
This one is definitely worthy! Love the motion.

Yes I've tried the leaves in the wind shot as well with no luck. Like how you panned this action shot.

I love the movement of the feet, there is so much life here.

The ball is great too.

Great action shot - and I know what you mean about leaves falling. I want a still capture of this too, and have not been pleased with any tries...

This has a great feel!

Leaves falling sounds uber difficult... Cool shot. Pretty amazing how much motion happens in 1/30 second

Great colors, tones and action! I particularly like the ball spinning on itself.

Great motion shot ...there is a clear line around the ball, but you have also captured the movement of it ...well done!!

Nicely done! ~ definitely showing a sense of speed

I have tried falling leaves, even got my other half to throw a bunch in the air and I still managed to miss them LOL

Very Very cool action shot

I bet they were really on the move....like this too! The colours and the movement all make it a great catch!

This works really well, great shot! I love the motion and colours and have tried to do something similar at my son's football club with nowhere near as good results. Well done!

Super panning shot - definitely worth keeping.
November 5th, 2012  
This is very good, you can see the rotation of the ball!
November 5th, 2012  
Love the spinning ball!
November 5th, 2012  
Love the captured motion, especially on the ball!
November 5th, 2012  
I took some similar, leaves blowing in the wind shots today...hard isn't it?? Failed epically to get anything decent at all. Well done with the motion in this one xx
November 5th, 2012  
Very dynamic shot. Love the strong colour
November 5th, 2012  
great feeling of speed and action
November 5th, 2012  
Totally cool action shot - the ball looks to me like it is spinning in mid air

Perfect focus on the ball here!

I like this, as well. And I suck at panning, as well. I think these shots make great, funky panning runners-up.!
November 7th, 2012  
Pretty cool action capture.

Hi! I see your idea. But would it have been a nice idea to get the boy's legs stopped, at a much higher speed? The focus of interest surely is not the ball but the boy's leg that is to kick it? Just a newbie's two cents worth.

The motion is amazing! well done! :)
