Hey guys 'n' girls, here's a challenge to get your teeth into and your AF going into melt-down, hopefully with the result that we can all improve our ability.

The challenge is this:

Post pictures of people or animals (or I suppose birds too, if they're on the ground) RUNNING.

Try NOT to always use high shutter speeds in perfect conditions, and we'll see how much we can all improve and help each other to develop better techniques.

To start with are two from my daughter's Sports Festival yesterday (she's the second one ) - sadly, I am guilty of too often relying on high shutter speeds, so I want to improve my panning skills too!

Enjoy, and get photographing those moving creatures!!!

Interesting idea, Simon.

Thanks Ronnie....these things just come to me - not sure yet of I should be worried?! - but hope you can have a go and either add to the teaching or learning side of the thread. Or both!!

Ohhh! Nicely done Ronnie. Love how the blur "works" and shows motion, rather than something OOF.
