"Motor-cab"

 When we talk about speed taking a photograph is not just the shutter speed of the camera, it also can be the speed involve in the image itself. This image I posted I took last year at the NYC streets. The interesting point of this image is that what is stable appears in movement, and what is moving look freeze. I love doing these shots, it is just art, I can say. In fact it is pretty simple to accomplish a photograph like this one. The technic is just to follow with your camera the moving subject at the same pace it is moving and shot the image. This way your camera will capture the movement of the background, and the subject moving will look stable for your camera because the camera is moving with it and is like if was not moving at all.

  1. good shot, panning is pretty difficult when not moving at the same pace as the subject.
