Panning and more

Panning...

One of those photographic techniques that actually require much more experience and learning to properly acquire the skills necessary.

It is not a technique that is utilized frequently and sometimes a big part of the images are good only for the recycle bin :)

Probably the most distinguishing aspect of this type of photography is the fact that the photographer has to move the camera while taking the shot, in other words, follow or "snipe" the subject. I am putting a link to more panning info below.

So.

When I was visiting an old train service in the mountains of Serbia, while I was waiting for our train, I was trying to make a good photo of it.

Here is the one photo that I find to be good, as having the focus where you actually want it could be quite challenging.

As this is a 100% tourist service, this isn't staged, just a random guy, who seems to be happy of the experience. (Yes, later on, I was happy too, but that's another story)

Here are a few more panning photos from the waiting time.

Those two images of the engine, aren't bad at all, are they? :)

The others above I'd say are closer to abstract arts.

Now, here are a few "regular", non-panning photographs from around the train station. Lovely, isn't it...
