I was at Santa Anita Park for their "Photography Day" a few weeks ago and, to be honest, it was the first time I had tried to do any serious stuff with a DSLR. I was using my Canon 7d. My main "take-away" from Santa Anita was that I didn't really have a clue how to use that camera. (Working on that now.)
Anyway, trying to get the hang of panning, I managed to blur up these two images (among plenty of others that will never see the light of day.) But these two blurry efforts I actually like. I think they convey the speed and motion and spectacle of horse racing. (I'm not proud of them, mind you. They are mistakes after all. I just like them.)
I'm posting them for your opinions. I'd like to know if they are likeable from your point of view, or if they are a pair of corkers in your opinion I'd like to know that, too. Thanks.
