Susana - a long-ish exposure, continuous shooting, spot metering on the person, and following him with the camera while standing half way down the hill next to the slide. The best shots were the ones where he is closest too me - because then he is moving more relative to the background. The trick was to keep the camera following him steadily. But I got a chance to have many attempts, as they kept surfing down this slide with the friends for a while. :)
This is a really fun shot and great for your challenge. I'm your Get Pushed partner for this week, which makes me happy because I admire your photos all the time! I'll refresh my memory then get back to you with a challenge.
@dmcoile thank you so much, Dianna! Here is a link to the challenges I did so far. It might be helpful. I will get back to you with your challenge in a day or two, if this is OK. http://365project.org/tags/vera365-gp
Thank you for your lovely comments!
