Okay... Here comes my very first attempt !! Shoot me with your comments :P :D

[mahmoud_bedewi]

good work Rifo , it is my pleasure to be involved in your first trial :D:thanks2:

[RAFiK]

Well this is original picture with very minor touches..

RiFo my friend, you need practice on panning shots.. Thats a good attempt to play with the photoshop and make the skidpad move, however the car still looks standstill..

For time being do watch some videos on panning, until i give you lessons next time we meet :P jk

For such shoots, I go for shutter priority, and increase the shutter to 1/100 to 1/160. There are other, more effective ways too.

Are you talking about the first picture ? If yes, How does the car look standstill ? explain more please.

Yeah I know, I'm still new to this, I was using 1/3000 or 1/2000 (Yeah i know I shouldn't be) but for next times I'm sure I'll pay more attention to it. I was busy instructing, I just had around 15 minutes to practice my skills...

Im talking about both the pictures, Bedewi was drifting and the pics should turn out to look like he's drifting, but instead from your shots the car doesnt look like its moving much.. What lacks is a feeling of motion..

Here's a fine example of a panning shot, look how you can see the motion in the pic..



I know im no better than you, yet still im giving my honest opinion, dont mind about it :)

it's excellent for a first attempt...

Dude to reach that level I need years of experience plus equipment. Again this is my first attempt to do something professional so keep that in mind. I'm getting it slowly slowly by watching how the masters do it (Moe, Faisal, Hiten...etc).

Same here, im working on panning shots too, saw the tricks n everything but need to practice it now, with time we both will get there ;)


You got photoshop skills though, well done
