Skaters

Playing with panning and fill flash, just sharing a couple of interesting captures.

Ruben,

Skater 1 is clearly my favorite. The pan is well executed (wheels and head are sharp) and the exposure was long enough to see the blur from the speed in the background and on his body from the movements to keep the skateboard on track. The position of the skater within the frame is also excellent.
Motion captured in one photo, you see it moving even when it doesn't.

Best regards,
Michael

Ruben, I like.

Don't ask me why? Never panned; hardly flashed!!

Regards.

Great captures, Ruben. The space in the first image is nice.
