2.13 - "Needs Work" 

This photo is from my very first time trying out ICM (intentional camera movement). If you don't already know how this is achieved I was panning my camera from left to right while pressing the shutter button. This was also my very first picture trying this technique. Maybe I should've submitted for the Luck contest as well. It can be a tricky trial and error process to get the panning speed and shutter speed combination just right. Let me know what you think.

love it, just note you have some sensor dust spots you might want to remove in the future. I'm guessing you used large DOF ..which makes the spots more pronounced. Been there. Even so love the layers and colors.

Thanks, I'm aware of the sensor dust and it has sense been fixed on the "real" photo. Just never reuploaded here. Probably should do that.

This is an extraordinary image. I rated it 5 stars (though I agree that you should edit out the sensor dust marks on the contest image). If you have ever seen the work of Joel Meyerowitz in his Cape Light series this reminds me of that. You picked a perfect time of day and got just the right amount of blur.

Thank you! I'll have to check out his work. And yes I definitely should update this image!
