It is obvious here this was not panning, had there been panning the woman would be blurry. This is a great picture though, more of a Motion shot with the train swishing by.

Nice composition. But the panning aspect of the challenge is not present in the photograph.

motion blur, yes! panning, NO! if you had just stepped back 2' and moved the camera with the train, you would have NAILED it...

that's motion blur, not motion panning

I believe the camera needs to move for the photo to qualify for a 'pan'. You've captured motion blur, but not panning.

not a panning shot but does show motion

As the subject is not moving this doesn't really fit in to the challenge description, I like the image though and the shadow of the lady on the train really adds to the photo, if she was standing even closer I think it would make it better.

Good choice of a moving object. I really like that the object is moving and she is standing still, it really makes you wonder why she is standing there.

Nice pic but zero panning

I like this image, but it doesn't fit the challenge I think. The challenge was to focus on the moving subject and bring it out sharp on the foreground. In your image, the moving subject is blurry.

Not really motion panning.
But still a nice picture
good luck

I do not think you met the challenge. It apears that the the only motion is the sped of the train pasing a very in focus lady. If the lady would have ben walking along the ramp and the train moving in the background, then the photo may have met the challenge. Best of everything

Motion panning is panning the lens not blurring a moving subject.

This is cool - it definitely gives the feeling of confinement and movement ... but you may get some "dnmc" - it appears that the train is moving, not the camera.

doesn't meet the challenge!

Nice blur, but no panning involved. As a photo in general, I like this, and would have liked it even better if the white balance had been properly adjusted to avoid the yellow cast.

fine shot,

It appears that the camera is still and the train is moving. The challenge was "Motion Panning".
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/08/2006 09:18:45 AM
It is hard to tell that you panned the camera for this shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/08/2006 08:27:13 AM
Great pic. Does this meet the challenge though? I'm not sure if motion panning mean the photographer has to move the camera or the object can move. Oh well, I'm giving an 8 for this because it's a cool pic anyway!!

Nice blur, image, and composition, but unfortunately it's not from panning, so it doesn't meet the challenge.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Whilst I love the shot, it doesn't seem to be true to the theme of the comp. There is motion blur, but no panning as such...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/08/2006 07:56:47 AM
is this motion panning, the camera seems still
 02/08/2006 07:30:17 AM
To me this is not motion panning
 02/08/2006 05:22:46 AM
You didn't pan the camera here.
 02/08/2006 04:55:35 AM
i love the movement on the bus.
 02/08/2006 03:58:10 AM
The title says it all - motion blur, not motion panning

Not really motion panning.

This is not panning... the coach should be sharp.

that's blur, not panning.

Not really motion panning... more just motion blur.
