The Shot I Missed Today

Portola Valley, California

The motion blur effect was not one I anticipated when I tried to capture this doe. I thought it created an interesting effect.

It works for me.

It's amazing to catch a deer standing still with the background passing by so fast! Very nice!

Pretty good tracking at 1/40th! I like the background. Wouldn't have thought we would see the rotation of the shoulder.

I like it, but I think if I looked at it very long I'd get dizzy.

This gives a great feeling of speed

Great panning. You matched motion with the doe perfectly!
