Photographer’s Note
this guy almost ran a red light, so he caught my attention with his little jet and i capture it just in time before he was pulled over!
The blue and yellow buildings in the background are the first Banks in the UAE after its independence from the United Kingdom
ALL i did was use selective color and increase red, yellow and blue slightly. then i adjusted the contrast and brightness to clean the image. framing was added at the end.
this was a panning effect

The picture looks good, but I guess you exaggerated with the gaussian blur here. The subject stands out too clearly out of the picture.

Hello Robert ... he sure seems in a rush ... maybe his wife was calling (?), or he had some delivery to make. I like the way you present your photo, the frame, the writing ... cool. All the best from Zurich, Barbara.

way to go Robert!
My mission is to pan. Don't know why, but it's my mission :)

Hi Robert,
Great panning and colors! I don't think he will be that late. :) TFS, Gilbert

Belle photo, bonne netteté sur le personnage principale et le flou pour le reste qui est de moindre importance. Amicalement Thomas
