very nice sense of acceleration...

Nicely composed, and nice bright green foliage. The blur effect is cool.

very nice. good speed effect but focus not blurred.
look at it for some time and you'll be kind of "sucked into the monitor". ;-)

I enjoy the motion blur in this photo...
06/12/2002 08:45:00 PM
Very nice motion effect. I almost wish that car in the background wasn't there, but I guess you can't really tell traffic to stop using the road = P

This photo instills an excellent sense of motion. Nice colors, tho the sky is a bit washed out. But hey, that happens. Very nice work!

Great feeling of motion.
06/12/2002 01:21:00 PM
nicely shot. nothing wrong with the pic, although the subject matter is not particularly interesting the blur sets this one apart from some of the others, in a good way : ) .

I love the motion blur on this photo. I feel like I am in the car!
06/12/2002 07:53:00 AM
Sense of motion is engaging. Nicely done.
06/12/2002 04:33:00 AM
It's interesting how the side is blurred but not the front. Really gives a good feeling of being in the car, cause that's how it looks :)
06/11/2002 12:46:00 PM
Very effective use of blur, I think.
06/11/2002 07:05:00 AM
The colors are really nice... Basically just two colors, nice and vivid. The blur is interesting to look at - definitely gives the pic a feeling of speed. I imagine it would have been rather difficult to do, but I think if the camera had been more over to the right and the other side of the street out of the frame entirely, I would like it a bit more.

Good use of blur to show motion but reminds me of a long booring drive, will ya I guess, good entry.
06/11/2002 06:04:00 AM
What a rush!
06/11/2002 05:25:00 AM
makes my eyes bug out ;)
06/11/2002 04:54:00 AM
i like the sense of speed in the foreground...but the distant view is too blurry
06/11/2002 12:34:00 AM
Technically, it may be 50, but it's the impression of cruising at 150. Too fast for this road!
06/10/2002 08:37:00 PM
creativety 4 interesting 4 focus N/A framing 7 =5
06/10/2002 06:46:00 PM

06/10/2002 03:40:00 PM

06/10/2002 01:29:00 PM
Nice job, clean, clear, sharp. Well done.
06/10/2002 12:02:00 PM
I can fel the motion.
06/10/2002 10:26:00 AM
Out of focus does not seem to work here
06/10/2002 07:45:00 AM
I don't know about anyone else, but this photo makes me feel like I'm going into the picture...the more I look at it the more I feel like I'm actually moving forward...I like it...
06/10/2002 07:26:00 AM
Woah.. I love the green and the motion in this!
06/10/2002 05:05:00 AM
Great shot, the lush green is awesome. I love it how none of the car (or whatever you're traveling in) is in view. The gradual blur is awesome.
06/09/2002 08:42:00 PM
If you actually look into this picture, it gives you a feeling that you are travelling too!! Great job. This is a fantastic photo.
