Photographer's Note
A shot from Formula One's first night race at Singapore's First Grand Prix.
The one thing I wanted to convey in my shots was the movement and the speed of the cars, so I went with a panning technique (no, the motion blur was not achieved in Photoshop).
PP Work: Cropping, levels, noise removal, sharpening, frame & watermark.
I hope you like the shot, more to come!

Hi Dan,
You catured thecar of Foce India, the slowest cars in the Formula 1 circuit.
I am not sure whether the car is driven by Sutil or Fisechela, but this car is often found at the last of the grid, and has not yet scored a single point.
Is Dr Mallya from Kingfisher listening?

Hi Dan,
This is an awesome shot that truly make jealous! I have tried this technique but somehow I can't seem to get it right. What camera settings should I use to achieve this motion blur and keep the subject still at the same time? Nice work and thanks for any help :-)

Hi Dan,
This is a great shot. It is very sharp for a high speed motion shot. The colours are also very good.
Kind Regards,
Scott

Very good panning technique and what an experience to witness the night race for the first time in F1 history.
