Default Double-mini trampoline run-up

This is an action shot of my daughter at one of her state championship competitions.
It was hard to pan this action because it was a relatively dark venue.

Should I crop this photo in any way in order to concentrate on the gymnast and delete some of the blurry background?


the run up


Lens EF-S17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM
Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/6
Av( Aperture Value ) 5.6
ISO Speed 400
Shooting Mode Shutter-Priority AE

Looks like an interesting shot, but it's just too hard to see with the small image posted.

Thanks for adding the larger version.

To me, the blurry background makes this photo unique and give a "blur" that's consistent with the blur that is your daughter.

If you were to crop it more, to me, you'd lose a lot of what makes this photo special.

I like panning shots of people running, and I think you did this one well.

My 2 cents.
