Posted by simone at July 21, 2006 03:59 AMFantastically frozen motion. I do have to ask - is this pure motion tracking with camere or a bit of motion blur in PS?
Posted by Digital Photo Ted at July 21, 2006 05:41 AMHow many tries?
Posted by floridora at July 21, 2006 06:39 AMwhat a perfect panning...
Posted by roby at July 21, 2006 07:11 AMWow! That must be the best panning shot I've seen yet, both the archway and zebra crossing lead you into the shot.
Well done!
Posted by John at July 21, 2006 07:34 AMsimply fabulous panning shot. You make it look effortless. :-) You know, yellow is the favorite color for cars in NY City. :-)
Posted by pixels.in.my.head at July 21, 2006 08:31 AMExcellent motion shot!
Posted by Craig at July 21, 2006 08:42 AMVery nice pan, these are tough to get. Looks like it was taken outside the hummingbird center in Toronto.
Posted by EssPea | Photography at July 21, 2006 08:58 AMyou do this type of shot a lot...some would say too much? But this one comes off better than many of the rest. The symmetry with the overpass and the colour of the taxi work well.
Posted by Crank at July 21, 2006 09:13 AMNice horizontal mirroring.
Posted by denise at July 21, 2006 11:51 AMamazing panning skills
Posted by Andrew at July 21, 2006 11:53 AMThings that make you go 'wow' - this is an amazing shot!
Posted by Kristin at July 21, 2006 12:03 PMGreat photo today. I like how it looks like Grand Central is flying by, and the taxi is standing still.
Posted by geckonia at July 21, 2006 12:55 PMnicely framed panning shot!
love that wide lens - I got myself the 10-20 sigma - its great for these city shots.

Posted by daniel at August 20, 2006 11:55 AMI used to visit your site everyday for a couple of years, then I moved without my computer. I remember you were just starting on this kind of "movement" style of photo and now you are great at it. I am very happy I found your site again and I can start my day with a photo of yours again. =)
