As I said yesterday the main road traffic had been diverted down our road for 5 days so I had a good chance of getting my camera panning to be a bit more successful than just hit and miss! Those words weren’t chosen for the traffic! I tried less speed (camera) and more speed and had to incorporate aperture in as well. This one was at 1/100.
In actual fact the photo on my other album looks more dramatic but a bit blurred in front - which I have always hankered to be!
Three good things:
1. Our local cop who lunches next door with a friend, parked beside me when I was opposite our place taking these photos! We swopped moon photos ( well he did, I didn’t have any) then he said all these cars passing by will be a bit suspicious of the cop ‘interviewing’ the photographer! He chuckled as he crossed the road!
2. Planted new potatoes.
2. This photo shows the pink blossom tree in our garden which is just mighty!
Well done! I find panning neigh on impossible. Bet some of the drivers are worried about getting a ticket what with a cop talking to a photographer on the side of the road!
Wow this a good one.......slap in the middle & pretty clear, congratulations on a super shot! Funny you chatting photos with the old bill! Blurred in front would be good!
The car is real sharp, and I love the blur in the background.....maybe a bit more would give it more of a sense of movement?! Thanks for pointing out the pink tree on your property....it's gorgeous....and, mighty!!
@panthora Yes, that is what I really wanted to catch - but these cars were only doing under 50km. If I panned too fast, everything was a blur, likewise with too slow! The one on my other posting was better for my ambition!
