First Lap

John Washington has been posting quite a few motion-blurred images recently and they've inspired me to try a few of my own (thank you John).

This was taken in Munich and there's another one to accompany it which I'll put up tomorrow.

I have been watching John's site for those shots. I like the style. This is a neat shot J. I have been messing with motion a bit too as you know. Isn't is fun? Can't wait to see the next one.

It's fun when it works :) ...The results can be quite unpredictable. Things that you thought looked boring look good when given some motion and vice versa.

really like the processing and the way the baby sems to be staring towards the camera

Ghostly image, like the way the guys top half is all there but the bottom looks like its missing. Looks good.

I've also seen them on JW's site and I think some of them have been fab. I like the high key feel to this one, it gives it makes it seem ghostly (as Jonathan pointed out).

Wow! Congratulations, that is an awesome shot. Looks like the inspiration really paid off!

Ab interesting take on motion blur, I think I prefer your slant to JW's though.

I like it... It looks almost cinema like in its appearance.

I wasn't sure at first if I liked this. I think it was the "crinkled" lines in the immediate background so I left it for a couple of days. Coming back, there is, as Russ says, a sense of cinema about if. There's tension in the child/crossing/approaching car which adds to the movement.

Done a good job here, Jamey. I thin kwhat makes it appeal more to me is how the zebra crossing stands out against all that movement
