So I was in St. Lucia last week on my honeymoon and brought my camera on the zipline tour. All shots with my sigma 30mm. Wish I would have been able to carry my 12-24 for the POV shots on the line.

Waiting to get on the first line:

And an attempt at panning while in line. I was too close though.

Nice shots! I was there a little over a year ago zipping down those same lines. Had a blast!

You did a great job panning with these. Were you standing on a platform or on another zip line running parallel to them? Regardless, nice shots :) I really want to try this one day. We have something like this in Whistler, BC.

Thanks guys. I missed the focus on the second face shot (focused on the hat accidentally), and I wish I could have pulled back more on the pan. I was standing on a platform waiting to get clipped in as they zipped by.

It was easily the best "tour" that we did. The horseback riding, cycling to a waterfall, and sunset cruise just weren't as good.
