Description This is the ONLY shot in my photography class that I am proud of...

I really enjoyed that class but I was kind of confused back then of what to shoot and I was also hesitant to take too many shots, afraid of wasting the film (..and ended up wasting the film anyway)...

But this one's simply perfect..

I enjoyed panning next to macro shots.

I should've gotten a perfect score for this but because of the yellowish print, 0.25 was deducted form my grade

PS. It's yellowish on paper but seems reddish on screen...blah
We were required a "black and white" print..brrr

well..I forgot the setting but I remembered setting a slow shutter speed.. the aperture will depend on the time of the day..and then you uhmm..how am I gonna explain this?

go to a street where vehicles are busy..and fast..then from you right(or left..wherever the vehicles are coming from), choose one approaching vehicle to capture then pan that vehicle.when it reached your front view,click your cam and still follow it (continue panning) as it leaves..it's a very quick process but VERY HARD. you are surely going to waste a lot of shots here but it's fun. did you get it? did I made sense?

that's the magic of panning
I love it..although I've wasted 20+ shots just for a single perfect one.
