Default First attempt at panning

I thought I'd try a go at panning. I took my daughter to the park and got her to spin me round in a bowl. Apparently I learnt recently from a kids tv show called Nina and the Neurons that if you spin round and get dizzy and then spin round in the opposite direction it helps you to feel less sick and it worked!

Here is the shot:

Cool shapes and colors! Great effect. Your daughter did well providing the action too.

Idea! I'll take my kids to the park on one of my days off and put them out there on the end with me and the camera in the center and snap a few......

Nice shot, Rach! Excellent blur with razor sharp edges on the boots....almost as if the camera and boots were connected. Thanks for sharing.

Cool shot, it looks like you have some reflections of trees also!
