275 - Sense of Motion

Indoors, the shutter speed on the action setting of my Nikon D80 really isn't fast enough.  Of about 20 or so shots of a Palomino western pleasure class, only 3 were in focus.  This one, out of focus though it is, weirdly enough turned out to be my favorite!  Sense of Motion just seemed perfect!

  1. I can feel her doing a sitting trot. Interesting how a sometimes less-than-perfect photo can be just right!

  7. I like this one too, Sunny! The color, composition and motion blur create an artistic image.

  10. Fascinating image, Sunny! I like that the horse and rider are cropped so closely. Its a very dynamic effect...
