All taken with a Pentax K3 and a DA*60-250mm f4 or Sigma 150-500mm lens from the public viewing areas.

Cheers,

Simon.

Some of the best panning shots I have seen for a long time, number 6 being my favourite purely for composition. The sharpness of the cars in the other shots is impressive. Well done

Am now mainly a Canon FF user 5D mk ii, 5D mk iii, 6D but still have some Pentax gear, K7, IST DS, K10D Grand Prix, Metz 32 ct4, Pentax A 50mm 1.7, Pentax M 28mm 2.8, Pentax DA 50-200mm 4-5.6, Pentax DA 18-55mm 3.5-5.6,

Thanks

Nice set Simon,

I can only view them on my phone at the moment as I'm on my jollies. The flat out one catches my eye along with 10 and 11. Will give them a proper look on my return.

You really have nailed panning Simon, #6 is my pick of the bunch

LBA is good for you, a Lens a day helps you work, rest and play.

Some fine stuff there, Simon. Hard to pick out a favourite, but I'm a massive fan of Marmite (be having some on my toast in a few minutes) and find #5 very appealing - good use of your surroundings to create something a little different (and dripping with flair).

Great panning techniques.
David
