Yay or nay. I like it a lot but wanted some opinion on it. I know I wish I had the whole head too.

Interesting shot for sure. Almost doesn't look real. Did you create the effect in photoshop or pan while shooting to capture this effect? (If you did the latter, kudos to you.)

I think it is cool shot and would make a nice poster.

Under the right circumsatnces I think it would make for a good image, especially since the riders eyes are sharp within acceptable limits. Good emotion on his face as well.

No it was shot. Was doing slow shutter flashed pans.

Too bad you didn't have second curtain sync enabled. This would have been even better.

Honestly, I'm not quite sure why... but I really do like it.
A lot of the time I tend to just dismiss shots like this as arty farty claptrap. Yes, I know, but it's probably just an age thing (you know, grumpy old man and all that). But I really do quite like this one. :lol:

cheers

Solid image Dan. I even like only having a part of the head in the capture as it looks like he is riding right into the lens almost. Well done.
