Description
My first attempt at panning, and I think it went pretty well! The guy is frozen completely and the sense of movement seems to work. I know I said I was finished with London, but I was delving through my shots and found this... Hope you like it!
PS, for all you fans of noise (you know who you are), I left some in for you!
Taken in Soho, London.

This is incredible! The fact that you got some clarity on the biker makes this picture so fascinating/perfect!

I think I get vertigo when I look at this. It's a very intriguing shot, wonderful moment.

Oh by the way, I forgot to ask: how did you achieve that effect?

I did it by moving the camera left to right as I took the photo... The shutter speed was long enough to capture the movement so the background blurred.

This is great! Like you said, the guy is completely frozen & I think that adds a very nice touch to the photo.

A very nice photoshop edition... If the man's sharp, the whole vehicle should be as they're going at the same speed...

No photoshopping done my friend. The reason the vehicle isn't sharp is because it was closer to me than the man, and as I pivoted on the same angle, the vehicle didn't traverse the same angle as the man did during the exposure. Hence the blur.

This adds weight to my theory that it's the earth that moves, while the rickshaw remains fixed.

True. That is why they are so fast and can dodge anything.
