For what it's worth, I would have never thought your image is anything but motion panning. It's great!

I don't know why people are so willing to give 1's. I can't remember the last time I voted a 1. Probably because I've never done it. By the way, did anyone notice that there are 3 BMW's in the top 10? Wierd.

You should be proud of this, it is very well done. You can never figure the 1s.

Congratulations on your placing...thought you would have done better with this, perhaps top 3. I gave you a 9. Love the shot!

Excellent panning, looks very pro. Needs something extra though for me to give a higher rating than a 7 but well done on the technicals.

There are lots of car shots but I think I like this one the best. Something about the complementary blues and reds along with the gunmetal color of the focused auto. 8

My only 10 for the challenge. Great job!

The colors are very nice, the amount of blur is good as well. I might have cropped in a little more on the top and bottom just to keep the solid colors to a minimum but that's me. Good Luck 9 Bump to 10 after further review, I really like this one.

Gorgeous coors and perfect panning. Great shot!

would make a great bmw add. I think if the image was cropped so the car was at the very bottom edge of the photo it would have been much better. I find the blur of the black, red and blue background much more interesting than the yellowish concrete that dominates the bottom of the photo. still a great photo, but can only give it a 9

Excellent - will assume you took this while panning the camera (as opposed to from another moving car). Very good shot. Update - bumping you to an 8 :)

Very nice. I like the coloring you have here. Solid effort
