For those not familiar with them, Little Britches are rodeos for kids who want to develop skills for the pro and semi-pro Rodeo circuits, later in life, or who just want to have a little fun! While I was watching the barrel racers, I decided to try Ted's "Swishy Pan" technique. It worked, though not as well as I'd like, on one shot in about a dozen. The rest were "cutting room floor only" shots! When it works, I think the method conveys motion, in a still photo, rather well. Not all will agree, I'm sure. With it, are two other shots from the day. All are cropped from shots taken with the R8/DMR and 80~200/4 Vario and 2x converter combo. http://www3.telus.net/~telyt/Lil_Britches.htm Comments, good or bad, appreciated, as always.
