Traffic
by Draken
Everywhere you look there's sccoters, cars, motorcycles, mopedists and so on rushing forward and backward to their destinations, this is just an image symbolizing the daily traffic stress in my town.

I love it, well done!. Could I ask how you did that?
Thank you Niel,
last autumn I had a streak of panning-o-mania
What i accually did was to stand by the side of the street and try to pan passing traffic.
This mopedist got lucky and stuck on my "film" as he passed by.
The Saab behind him drove faster or slowlier, can't remember, and became blurry.
the yellow u see in the left foreground was a cab in the oposite direction.
The panning technique will take some time to learn, this image could have been alot sharper for instance, but if you have a monopod to you cam it will get easier.
So far I've only done panning pics on free hand, worked out ok, but with a monopod u can have longer shutter times and still get that cool effect sharp enough.
