    JUST the right amount of blur in the background and moving parts...YOU NAILED THIS. Uh, except for the cropped helmet at the top of the frame...hummm...could you maybe crop the rest "too tight" to make it work? Darn, I almost did not notice the helmet because of the excellent panned shot. Good darned work.

    yea, how'd you get the exif data on the bottom of the shot?

    Thanks for the comments.

    It's pretty tough to frame these exactly right, especially when you're shooting with a prime thru a little 2x2' hole in chain link fence. Thanks for the tip on the crop, I'll try it out.

    As for the EXIF, I run a photoshop javascript called PrintEXIF that adds that to an image. It's something I found on dpreview.

    Nice panning shot. But I would agree, it could be sharper...maybe if it was 1D kit :D

    Only kidding. These shots are tough to get. Especially when you don't have that
    primo access to the track.

    Nice work Justin! Do you have more to share?
