Nice shot Barry, good panning and composition. Subject nice and sharp. Like the motion blur of the wheels and background giving a sense of great speed. Nice work

Successful panning shot, well done.
Only tried a few of these but I know they are difficult to pull off.
Did you do any racing?

Only racing I did was getting out of the way of incoming mowers .

Dennis, Paul, thanks for your comments, I managed to get quite a few good panning shots plus lots of duff ones.

Hi Barry

Excellent panning once again! Love the way the motion blur makes the subject pop.

Depending on the track that they are geared for, but on some of the faster tracks about 50-55 mph.
