This image was captured by both panning and zooming simultaneously- very difficult and trial an error.This will be my last challenge. No post processing -straight out of the camera. Thanks for all the comments

I'm loving the blur... I'm hoping you're close.. 5.7

I love this kind of shot - excellent focus on one rider's face and the blur of action around him. I gave it an eight. I think it will score quite a bit higher than your prediction. 6.3

I agree: 5.58. I like the jumble of tires and legs and spokes at the bottom.

Great up close action and appropriate blur to make the point. 5.93.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/08/2015 12:42:23 PM
just a bit too much motion blur for my taste. Nice colors though. 5.3
 02/08/2015 09:25:56 AM
There was something similar in FS, think this will get voted down at about 5.6. Interesting action effect.
 02/08/2015 06:39:07 AM
Great motion capture! It would really rock if he were just a bit sharper, but that's asking a lot (though I wonder if you could have done more in post). I'd say 6.2
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/08/2015 06:02:52 AM
your guess sounds about right. 5.6
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/08/2015 05:57:29 AM
cool 6.2
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/08/2015 05:27:40 AM
I really like this and have tried several times to get a fast moving image to turn out like this. If you have a chance please PM me how you achieve this. Is this done in PS or caught like this? Thanks

My guess is 5.871

For me, this image is a good one, but one notch below the best images in the challenge. I expect it to do about 5.8
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/07/2015 06:51:38 PM
Great stop action. Fun to look at. 5.5
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/07/2015 11:58:26 AM
I gave it a six. Guessing a 5.7.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/07/2015 06:36:39 AM
Well made with a good sense of speed but probably with niche appeal. I think it will get a little more though. 5.88
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/07/2015 01:27:31 AM
Great capture of speed. 6.0476
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 11:53:11 PM
I like a bit of motion blur every now and then, I'm going for 5.758
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 11:00:53 PM
the face of the leading sportsman is in focus alright, it would have been perfect, if all the others would have been even more blurry... a very difficult task for the photographer in this situation, I have to admit - 6 from me and I predict 5.7
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 06:55:23 PM
I'm not sure how you did this. only the head a shoulder not blurred, you must have planned this or desired it, I guess maybe the movement was side to side? anyway its a cool shot with a lot of motion and great colour, I think you will score a bit higher 5.86 and I will give this a seven vote, Good Luck

 02/05/2015 04:39:29 PM
Great energy and movement. An obvious stable focal point - it is almost unbelievable to have captured it like that. It gets an eight from me. Predicted DPC score: 6.61
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 03:39:17 PM
Well panned but too messy - 5.65
 02/05/2015 10:44:27 AM
I'd say you are right on the money with 5.58
 02/05/2015 09:47:08 AM
nono,,,,,ends close to 6 + - ,,, 8 from me
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 09:25:09 AM
Great sense of speed, motion, and concentration. I think you are pretty close to the mark, 5.85
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 09:09:16 AM
5
 02/05/2015 07:44:03 AM
Not sharp where it should be focused. 5.3
 02/05/2015 07:43:32 AM
probably pretty close...
the moustache on this guy is definitely the focal point for me, I can't stop picturing him asking "Who wants a moustache ride??" followed by a "I know I just made the worst joke ever" chuckle.

5.58 you say? 5.58 I concur.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 04:50:25 AM
Wow, that is a specific guess. 7 from me. Stop-motion of just part of a scene is really tough and you just nailed it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 03:14:49 AM
more like a 5.8, great spacing of action adn color.6 from me
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/05/2015 02:11:32 AM
Love it 9 from me but 5,4
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/04/2015 11:18:40 PM
i think it's worth more. I predict 5.92
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/04/2015 08:05:22 PM
Seven from me. I love the focused face in the midst of all that movement blur.
My prediction is 6.5033
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/04/2015 04:35:41 PM
Really nice action shot. I think it is worth a 7
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/04/2015 03:02:52 PM
Now that's how you do motion panning! Nicely done. 6.23
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/04/2015 02:01:25 PM
5.963 (I gave it an eight)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/04/2015 12:39:55 PM
I voted before looking at titles, now commenting.

I think it will be hard for you to manage upper fives on an image where nothing is sharp. I gave you a 4.

My guess: 4.59
 02/04/2015 11:58:15 AM
I actually gave this a 6, the blur is a lot of fun


I love the motion feel of this with the blurr and too bad it couldn't be for that challenge LOL would have worked perfectly.. AVG guess would be a 5.4
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/04/2015 05:43:56 AM
Good stopped action. I predict 5.6.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/03/2015 11:56:15 PM
Love the movement in this and great composition. This is the best shot I have seen so far and I am more than half way through voting on them all. I estimate 6.7
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/03/2015 03:27:32 PM
I go with your guess

5.58
 02/03/2015 11:21:31 AM
Heading more to 6.2133 Its good real action
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/03/2015 09:35:57 AM
Hello, I voted a few days ago, now returning for comments. I think that you estimated your score well, I gave you a six but I predict that you will finish at 5,5492
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/03/2015 08:01:39 AM
Interesting, but subject needs to be bit more in focus. 6
 02/03/2015 05:49:28 AM
Cool action shot I like the feel on the movement.
I voted higher than your guess.
Back to post my guess. 5.89

 02/02/2015 07:38:22 AM
Stopped motion in perfectly done. 7
