I like it! I used to shoot motorsports and would often take photos at slow shutter speeds while panning with the car, so I can appreciate this photo.If you don't like the image, that's fine. But I would sure appreciate suggestions as to how I could improve the next time this opportunity arises............TIA
Thanks to @BrianBirch , @Icarus , @Snapshot2020 , @Turberticus , @VTRich , @Woodyg3 , @Tom , and @Patrick M for the likes!
Thank you! I've never tried using a slow shutter speed before!I like it! I used to shoot motorsports and would often take photos at slow shutter speeds while panning with the car, so I can appreciate this photo.
Thank you so much, Dave. I took a lot of shots and about 3 were pretty good, but this was the best of the bunch. I tried 1/6 second shutter speed and quickly went back to 1/8th! LOL! It was fun!I love it Karen. The motion blurred feet along with the nearly mono-chromatic scene is like something out of a dream. Really nice!
I hate it, Karen!..., I sure wish they would say they hate it and here's why.........
Thanks! But know that you can always tell me you don't like an image of mine......fine with me. Just tell me WHY.............I hate it, Karen!
No not really!! You've done a very good job with the very difficult task of capturing a panning slow-shutter photo of a quadriped. The eye is far sharper than I sometimes get with a fast shutter speed. I would love to be able to call that shot mine.
Nice job, Karen.
Very nice photos of your neighbor.
Thanks for all you do!Looks great to me!
The lion was actually walking toward the sunset. Believe it or not, the images were so saturated with the deep orange sunset, that I de-saturated this image a bit!Nice, looks like it is walking directly into the sun. It conveys motion very well
Thank you so much!Interesting concept, I like!!
It takes the right situation.....so be open to it if it comes along! LOL!Nice photo,haven't been game to try that yet but one day
Beautiful light? Well....he was walking toward the last light of day. But think about it....1/8th, ISO 2800......it was quite dark! Thanks so much for commenting!Wonderful pic Karen!
Technically perfect, not at all.
Impressive, absolutely.
You nailed it in a beautiful light and one really get the feeling of motion!
Appreciate it!Very nice capture!
Thank you Gavin!Great capture Karen!
Looks like you had a super trip to Botswana,
Please share more of your pictures taken on the trip,
Regards,
Gavin
It's a great atmospheric shot!Before our 4th trip to Africa, I wrote down one photography goal: to experiment with slow shutter speeds to show motion in a wildlife subject. Advice from @Steve was a big help... he is SUCH a great teacher!

Nice image Karen. I like to see panning when used with wildlife, it often makes the image become more alive.Before our 4th trip to Africa, I wrote down one photography goal: to experiment with slow shutter speeds to show motion in a wildlife subject.
