John McKnight | 1 year agoI think this is a great shot. The panning was nicely done to freeze the car yet blur the background. The panoramic presentation adds much to this image. Nicely done.Walter Rojter | 1 year agoThank you John!Gold on the Road by Walter Rojter Gold on the Road by Walter RojterGold on the Road by Walter Rojter

Walter Rojter | 1 year agoI really like this image, especially the motion on his beard. One thing I would try is to crop it above the wheels, IMHO it will accentuate the guy's expression, flying beard and in addition, create more space in front of the subject.Biker Dude by John McKnight Biker Dude by John McKnightBiker Dude by John McKnight
GROUP A - SCORE 88
JUDGES: Boris Gabay 87 | Robert Lino 89
I took this image from a moving car. I had to crop the image tight because I had caught some of the window frame on the right side of the image. I got lucky when the biker look over at me the second I took the picture. I thought his eye contact and expression add a lot to the image. We were going about 60 mph and if you look closely you can see his beard is getting blown back by the wind. It was an overcast day so that helped keep down the hot spots. Spot removal was necessary to clean up the background. I took out a telephone pole and a distracting white post.

GROUP A - SCORE 87.5
JUDGES: Boris Gabay 88 | Robert Lino 87
This image was taken in Gainesville over the Christmas holiday. I saw this youngster riding his skate board very fast down a hill. I used the panning technique at 1/20 of a second to blur the background and yet keep him somewhat in focus. The ISO was 200 and the aperture was f-13. I flipped the image in post processing to put him coming into the frame from the right side. I did minimal spot removals in the background.

John McKnight | 1 year agoI like this image. It has impact. The lighting on the rider is very nice. The implied motion is very evident. You have caught that magic moment of peak action. The background treatment has eliminate the usual busy backgrounds we see in rodeo images. Nicely done.Rodeo 2024 by Norene Monahan Rodeo 2024 by Norene MonahanRodeo 2024 by Norene Monahan

I took this photo at the Wings Over Homestead Air Show in 2023. This is a US Air Force F-22 climbing at a tremendous rate of speed. The "smoke" over the wings are actually water droplets that condense, forming a cloud particularly when fighter jets do high G maneuvers.
