A fast 50cc Honda

Well, not really. This is my little brother riding by out in front of the parents' house. We're both visiting, and stealing Greg's 50cc, he's the youngest and still lives at home. Anyway, this is my first (successful) attempt at shooting a moving subject. I think this fits into this forum, if not feel free to move it mods. C&C much appreciated.

Evolt E-410, ISO 100, 1/60 sec exposure, F7.1, 27mm focal length (54mm on a 35mm film), -0.7 EV.

That is too funny and a very good first go at panning.

I like the shot, I remember those little 50cc honda's thwey just went on and on and on and on and ................

Some friends I knew did school boy motox and their dad built them a motox bike based on a 50cc honda (he changed the head and piston to a honda 90 and a barrel from a honda 70) and the only time that thing stopped in 2 years it took us over an hour to remove all the clay from around the wheel.

Next time- boost your ISO a little bit to get some more light in The background may wash out a little but it will improve the speed feel.

This kind of fun can result in a visit from a Police Officer over here
Your Pan worked well, the motion blur in the background makes it look like your brother is just flying along .... well done .... Skippy

Not to worry, I'm relatively tame on the SV. The 50, we're downright hooligans
