Olà Goncalo,
Muito bonito trabalho. A impressão de velocidade com a vaporosidade é fantástica e a clareza sobre os viajantes do eléctrico é perfeita.
Gostaria de poder fazer uma fotografia como aquilo.
Parabéns!
Um saludo
Diane

CLODO (4304) 2008-10-06 10:55

I have checked your 3 pictures, and I prefer this one because the tram and persons inside is pin sharp, giving the idea of high speed, to match with your picture name

Hi Goncalo,
I also think that this photo is the best one. One can imagine the speed of the tram. The colours are stunning! It is nice to know that there still are existing these technical wonders in Lisboa. My compliments!
Warm regards

Hi Goncalo, Interesting photo of the famous Lisbon tram. What is going fast - the tram or the city? Nice colours.

robiuk (10763) 2008-10-06 12:09

Olá!
Nice one, Goncalo!
Both windows with passengers are pin sharp and besides
that fact what I like here is lovely yellow that appears
on buildings, over lady's shirt to advertisements on the
tram and its door.
Good work,
Robi

Good evening

Bartleby (4924) 2008-10-06 13:37

Hi Goncalo,
I like this colorful panning of yours. The feeling of speed is here and the two passengers looking out the window in the same direction add an extra something to the scene.

Yours,

Philippe

Jardim (3197) 2008-10-06 13:48

Olá Gonçalo,

Um efeito muito bonito em que realmente o eléctrico parece uma bala a atravessar a foto. As cores estão também bonitas. A defenição da foto está no sitio certo, isto é tudo á volta do eléctrico está desfocado e o electrico na sua maior parte não.
JJ

lucasgalodoido (16605) 2008-10-06 17:49

Ola Gonçalo,
ficou sensacional essa foto e gostei da comparação com o TGV. Realemte ficou partecendo que o motorista desse eléctrico está muito doido, e gostei da propaganda também, combina com a velocidade.
Parabéns e Abraço

scalerman (25747) 2008-10-06 17:52

Hey Goncalo: the classic panning shot - and very well executed my friend. congratulations on this successful image. c

Docarmo (8840) 2008-10-06 18:52

Olá Gonçalo,
Um panning belíssimo! As cores estão muito harmoniosas, um momento bem escolhido. A presença das pessoas sentadas ali é muito importante na composição, dá um charme todo especial.
Parabéns!

hispic (7399) 2008-10-06 20:27

Olà Goncalo,
Splendid shot of Portuguese TGV. It seems to be running at 574.8 km/h in Lisboa. Perfect panning shot, especially the lady in yellowish green is perfectly captured.
Have a nice day, Hisashi

gunbud (27951) 2008-10-06 21:03

Hi Goncalo,
Wonderful sense of motion from this speeding yellow trolly car brilliantly seen against the classic blurred background.
Excllent clarity and sharpness to this fine urban image.
Regards, Tom

Stepan (27175) 2008-10-06 23:10

Excellent idea, excellent (simple) title, excellent realization.
The colors and the blurry effect work perfectly.
You saw and did it very well.

Hi Goncalo!

You made an eye-catching panning with an excellent composition. The colors in the background and in the foreground are in good harmony together and the silhouettes of the passengers very sharp. I also like the touch of electric blue on the ground. Good job!
Regards
Marine

gracious (20017) 2008-10-07 0:33

Ola Concalo,
great action shot of this moving TGV!

tober (3962) 2008-10-07 2:34

Hello Gonçalo, apart from the high-speed effect, what I liked most in this photo is the beautiful harmony of the colours on the tram, with the blurred-yellow background. Kinhd regards, Tolga

devimeuxbe (55873) 2008-10-07 2:37

Hi Goncalo
Very nice panning with beautifull colors. It's very well done and the sharpness is well managed.

jrj (34779) 2008-10-07 4:50

Very good and well made variant of the famous Lisboa trams here G. Effectful and well captured with a moving camera. Good idea.

zmey (7260) 2008-10-07 6:05

ola goncalo
LOL, this is one crazy speedy tram... does look faster than a bullet. one thing amazes me: how did you get the people in the window so sharp while the tram itself has motion blur in places :) anyway, i like the capture and the green monkey is well deserved here.

see ya later
kristaps

rodgerg (24243) 2008-10-07 6:27

Olà Goncalo,

Very good this shot to the famous electic of Lisboa. A memory for me, a superb memory with a good framing, an impression of movment and this lectric which arise very well in the image.
A very good photowork,
Amizades,
Roger

josepmarin (33831) 2008-10-07 8:15

Olá Gonçalo,
simpático título para la foto. Desde luego que has captado perfectamente un gran efecto de velocidad, muy dinámico y que da un aspecto impresionante a la toma.
Me gusta ver la expresión de la gente mirando por las ventanas del típico tranvía lisboeta, y el anuncio de un buen whisky irlandés que también me gusta.
Buen trabajo.
Un abrazo,
Josep

sacavem (8313) 2008-10-07 9:13

Olá Gonçalo,

Good panning Gonçalo,o efeito foi do "Jameson" sem gelo. Gosto muito desta com cores vivas e muito atractivas. Bom enquadramento.Parabéns pelo apuramento da técnica em relação à anterior.
Um abraço,
Filipa

Excellent exercise, well realised. The result is impressive!
It gives a futurist style to this charming old tram.

J'aime beaucoup cette impression de vitesse, dans ton image. Superbes couleurs aussi.
Bonne journée

npecanhuk (14058) 2008-10-08 3:04

Olá Gonçalo!
Uma foto muito bem tirada, com o bonde bem focalizado e o fundo todo borrado, demonstrando "la grande vitesse" desse trem/comboio português - ou seria bonde/eléctrico???? (muito bem humorada a fotografia unida ao título que lhe foi dado)!
Gostei bastante!
Parabéns e um grande abraço!
Neyvan

niphredil76 (688) 2008-10-08 5:09

Ciao again, Goncalo.
I find this one an outstanding shot: you chose very well for a long exposure transforming the lovely electrico in a real high velocity arrow!
And with a perfect color rendering!
Bravissimo!
Laura

cfreire (11647) 2008-10-08 5:38

Oi, Gonçalo
Esta foto, para mim, está excelente; o panning foi bem elaborado e as cores estão vibrantes, fortes. Muito bom, mesmo! Abraço, consuelo

trekks (14320) 2008-10-08 5:44

hello Goncalo

When I look at this photo, I wish there will be a train from Malaysia taking me all the way to Portugal for shooting holiday!

Truly amazing to see your panning shot here, with left end still in blur while the train moves fast. The panning shot's test comes in the painting at right of the train. I like your idea.

tfs, bill

AiresSantos (42244) 2008-10-08 5:47

Hi dear friend
This one is great, great photojob !
well chosen this colourful tram. The colors and the blurry effect work perfectly
I also like your title
Congratulations
Aires

dareco (17104) 2008-10-08 7:48

Good one! I like the focus on the passengers and the motion of the bus. I love the colors and artwork. A great capture! TFS

Silvio1953 (41941) 2008-10-09 1:13

Ciao Goncalo, fantastic movie effect, great action composition with wonderful idea of high speed, very well done, ciao Silvio

riclopes (33007) 2008-10-09 2:04

Bom dia Gonçalo, mais outra grande foto de panning. Está muito bem conseguida e aqueles dois à janela ficaram perfeitos. Até o tipo do Jameson no eléctrico ficou bem enquadrado. Curioso, pois o Izzet também apresentou um panning de um eléctrico no dia do encontro de TE ;-)
Um abraço,
ricardo

jcdurka1 (1940) 2008-10-09 8:49

It's my prefered the three pannings that you've post. In part for the comercial on the side and the hands of the man that try to catch something.
Well done,
JC

tiagoalmeida (1294) 2008-10-09 12:19

está muito bem esta foto o efeito de movimento ficou muito bom.

danyy (68947) 2008-10-09 13:37

Ola Goncalo,

L'impression de vitesse et de mouvement est bien rendue grâce au flou qui entoure le véhicule. Les paramètres d'exposition et de temporisation sont excellents.
Regards, Daniel

jmdias (19393) 2008-10-09 17:15

belo visual de alta velocidade que faz o bonde andar na velocidade da luz, bela imagem, muito bem feita, boa luz e enquadramento

hatti52 (12654) 2008-10-10 4:39

Olà Goncalo,
Excellent pan working
just excellent
congrats

pboehringer (770) 2008-10-10 9:59

Goncalo,
you certainly got a nice collection of Lisboas trams with the impression of a very high speed. There is no doubt regarding the success of these images. Very well done work on all three posts!!!
The technique is quite interesting, although looking into the details of these images I have certain questioning if this is true panning. I see the middle portion of the trams quite sharp and then the blurr on the ends of the trams as well as the buildings. It gives me the idea that you did some blurr technique with your PP. Tell me that I'm wrong.
Nothing wrong in doing it with PP. I'm just curious if my analyses is correct or not. The images are good regardless of how you achieved it. True pieces of art!
Peter

stego (22360) 2008-10-10 15:32

Olá Gonçalo,
Aqui está uma coisa que nunca tentei, panning. Esta está especialmente bem conseguida. Além da sensação de movimento, gosto imenso do arranjo de cores. Se por um lado tiveste alguma sorte com a cor da blusa da senhora à janela e até com a publicidade no eléctrico, todos sabemos que é preciso talento e sentido de oportunidade para conseguir aproveitar o que se oferece diante dos olhos.
Um abraço, José.

paura (38540) 2008-10-11 5:22

Gonçalo,
O bonde é lindo e o efeito e movimento ficou excelente na sua composição para mostrá-lo. Muito boa, amigo.

Abraço

Paulo

Felip (3905) 2008-10-11 15:32

Long time without a tram image coming from you Gonçalo....it's just splendid!, you have frozen it in a magnificient way.

Best wishes

Felip

ElAprendiz (7370) 2008-10-12 6:16

Olá Goncalo:

The sense of dynamism is great. The scene has been frozen in a timely and balanced, where the highly colored highlights. He deserves all the points ...

John

adores (15581) 2008-10-12 14:30

Olá Gonçalo!
Muito bem conseguida, tanto pelo panning como pelas cores, que estão óptimas. Gosto muito da publicidade e das pessoas à janela.

bakes888 (18257) 2008-10-13 1:04

Hi Goncalo. These things really move ;-). Great photo. Excellent panning technique and excellent colours also. Thanks for sharing.
Have a good week, Paul.

This tram is running like a hell! - Great paning shot with magnificent expression. I like its dynamism, and livin' amazing colors. I can feel pulse of Your city.

ribeiroantonio (21925) 2008-10-17 16:42

Um eléctrico com cores eléctricas e à velocidade da luz só mesmo em Lisboa!
Está linda, Gonçalo. É talvez uma das melhores fotos dos eléctricos de Lisboa aqui no TE.
António

ilDottore (4004) 2008-10-18 11:04

Oi Goncalo,
Absolutely perfect shot of this yellow "rocket"!
I love especially the vivid colours and intelligent blurring.
Also advertisement of Irish whiskey is very nice! :)

Olà Gonçalo.
Je n'avais pas encore vu cette superbe composition de ce tram fou lancé à la vitesse du TGV à travers la ville. Le filé est très réussi et les couleurs éclatantes.
Que du bonheur !
Amicalement,
Jacques

avene (11044) 2008-10-25 20:46

olá Gonçalo,
I had to laugh when I read the title to this photo, very appropriate :) I have never succeeded with panning, therfore I admire such photos from others even more. on top of that, you have great colour combination, seems that the woman was wearing the yellow shirt on purpose, to mirror the colours of the tram. "Jameson" advertisment is a fun accent :) excellent work, my compliments.

regards,
Kristine

maloutim (3973) 2008-10-28 2:23

Hola Goncalo!
Buenissima toma de este autobus que es bastante nitido, pero mostrando el movimiento! Sin embargo, es l'efecto borroso del fondo que le da a la escena una impresiòn de velocidad!
Me gustan la postura y la nitidez de los pasajeros, los colores vivos de la publicidad, y el hecho que si vede solamente la parte trasera del bus: Este añade a l'efecto de movimiento.
Bravo!
Marie Louise.

Dragut (1979) 2008-12-03 11:01

Take care of yourself my friend!

Ciao Gongalo,
ho notato che i tram sono un soggetto da te molto fotografato. In effetti piacciono molto anche a me.
Bello qui l'effetto mosso che dà senso di movimento alla scena ripresa.

TFS!
