I gave it a 9. It's a shame that so many people vote on challenge content and how they 'think' it was taken, rather than the quality and technical aspect of the picture. When I'm voting I always think, if it's not legal it'll be DQ'd.

I didn't HOLD it i MOVED it when the dart was falling... that's what panning is about isn't it ? :D

| Did you hold the camera on it's side ? Because if you didn't, you wouldn't be panning, you would be tilting and your image wouldn't fit the challenge ;-) |

| Ok... I will explain it to all those ubelievers over there. It actually IS motion panning, but if you could think a bit you would realise that you don't have to throw the dart.. The dart was falling vertically, my friend was dropping it and the background is a MAP... about 100photos. 1 chosen. Big thanks for the BELIEVERS :)This isn't about cheatin!! |

| How do i know this is a moving dart vs a stationary one and a blurred background? :) I'd guess the latter. |

| my personal opinion? it's too perfect of a shot, especially from a technical standpoint. without any blur or context from the background, it feels as sterile as something that comes from a lab. |

| Not sure how to vote on this one. Doesn't look like a panned shot, the dart is way too clear and the background out of focus. Love the shot, just not convinced it is a true panned shot. If this is panned it is truely outstanding. I don't want to mark you low on something I'm not sure about, I'll compromise and give you a 7. Good luck! |

| I keep looking at this and it seems like it is a "faked" motion pan. Create the background and setup the dart. There's no way that you could have gotten as tack sharp an image as this one. My thoughts ;) |

| Nice shot. Clean, simple, nice looking backgrounds. Great panning effect also. |

| Best panning shot in the competition hands down no questions asked....but...if I was to ask a question I would want to know how you accomplished this brilliantly focused shot...colors are beautiful |

| Great colour. How did you do this? (is the dart fixed?). |

| Is that actually in flight or is it just laying on a glass table? |

| Wow this one looks like a winner. The coloring and perspective are wonderful. |

| First off, I barely qualify as an amature. But I am starting to realy enjoy this photo stuff. I'm gonna give this a 9. I suspect it is the perfect motion panning pic, but. Could this have been done by using Macro at high shutter speed on a dart with a distant obscure background that is out of focus. Maybe a differant background that showed the "panning" would have been better. Just wondering as I am egar to learn. Cool pic dude. |

| Either amazing panning, or just suspended and the background blurred. I can't decide! I'll give you the benefit of the doubt ... |

| This would be fantasic if it were actually motion panning capture of a dart in flight. I'm giving you a high score, but I'm suspicious that it isn't what it seems to be. |

| I want to know how this was done, way cool. 8 |
|

| Very well done. Very difficult to get that dart sharp into flight, because it is so small. Curious how you did it (tried it myself, but totally failed, I sent it in anyway for comments that could possibly help me). 9. |

| Just awesome. (9, and good luck!) |
|
|
|
02/09/2006 09:10:41 AM |
| I like it... maybe a little more motion blur in the back ground though (I know that this is probably suspended though) |
|

02/09/2006 06:45:04 AM |
| IS IT REALLY IN MOTION?IT IS DIFFICULT TO ANALYZE THE MOTION OF BACKGROUND |

| I'm struggling to vote for this one. it's one of my favourite shot in the challenge, but I struggle to believe it was achived with motion panning. That said, many photographers are capable of achiving things I wouldn't even know how to do. I'll try to remember to look this up after the challenge. |

| not sure there is motion, but I like it |
|
|
|
02/08/2006 05:52:58 PM |
| Wow! It looks like the dart is just floating. Please tell us how you did this. |
|
|
|
02/08/2006 01:03:50 PM |
| Nice colors and composition. Looks like background blur is due more to DOF than to (minimal?) motion panning. A slower shutter speed would allow for motion blurring of the background to be made more evident by longer streaks. |
|
|
|
02/08/2006 12:33:56 PM |
| I like it! I cant really say why, I just like it! I like the detail and sharpness of the dart and the speed in the background! |
|
|
|
02/08/2006 10:28:46 AM |
| Looks more like shallow depth of field than panning. |
|

| I'm intrigued as to how this was done, as it would require an amazing ability to capture the dart so perfectly using a normal panning technique. I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt. Well done. |
|
|
|
02/08/2006 08:59:07 AM |
| Giving this an 7 for the technical merit: the dart is extremely sharp, especially considering this is a panning shot. As a composition, I don't think this is an interesting picture, though. |
|

| I'd like to see this hot uncropped |
|
|
|
02/08/2006 06:36:29 AM |
| Very cool but blur looks like out of focus and very little like motion blur. Still pretty good. |
|
|
|
02/08/2006 06:17:59 AM |
| so cool :D the border is a bit thick, but anyway its a really nice image, 7 |

| Great shot, just don't see the motion, rather looks like DOF... |
