Cyclist in the Pyrenees - experimental!
Tried something a bit "out there" to convey the motion of this cyclist other than by using panning.
Not sure if it really worked or not! Thoughts welcome.

"Now what?"

Re: Cyclist in the Pyrenees - experimental!
Yeah, the whole zoom thing doesn't do much for me either. But experimentation is good, keep trying new things!
I can't see the second pic though, just a red X. |

Re: Cyclist in the Pyrenees - experimental!
Thanks for the feedback!
If I'd had the presence of mind I think I might have tried zooming and panning at the same time - I saw this done to very good effect once. I was just pleased I didn't crop his back wheel. Oh btw, the second pic is not a photo, it's some stupid Imageshack link that they insist on putting at the bottom of photos posted on forums!

Re: Cyclist in the Pyrenees - experimental!
I like experimenting with shots like this. This one may not knock it out of the park for the masses, but I would look at it as a possible step in a direction that could produce something very likeable/inyeresting.
What if you used a flash on 2nd curtain synch? Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
