Really nice shot. The concentration is really good, I agree. I love the blur in the back and your focus is great!

Great capture of the all too familiar fire trucks and rescue heros of the NYC area. I really like the blurring of the background showing movement of the fast trucks in reverse. The red really pops and focus is quite clear considering. Thanks for sharing. Nice photo.

Art is undoubtedly the cornerstone of all Photographic paths, tracing it's true roots back to cave drawings and etchings.

Digital Art has surely passed everyone's expectations, and has led me to occasionally explore the challenges and creativity offered by a Fuji Finepix S2800HD Digital Camera.

I do not hold a teaching qualification, but I am BTEC National Diploma accredited and a NAWE Professional follower / member.

My aim is never to cause offence.

Your Image Canvas is an outstanding example of being in the right place at the right time.

Captioning is simple and has been well thought through.

Creativity of presentation: First Rate
Color Harmony: Outstanding
Centre of Interest: Well seen
Technical Excellence: Respect
Technique: Imaginative
Story Telling Ability: Strong

Conclusion: A worthy addition to your Portfolio.

Thank You for sharing and enhancing my journey as an Art Reviewer.

Well captured. The blurred background accentuates the speed of the truck and the look of concentration on the drivers is superb. Thanks for sharing.

Perfect! It's all I can about this photo, especially because of the contest you've entered it into. I love the world going by in a blur beside the firetruck and I agree with you about the POW flag. You don't see it often anymore.
The colors, sharpness, movement, emotion, and DOF are beautiful!
Good luck hun!
Great Job!

An excellent shot with very nice panning technique to blur the background just enough to capture the sense of speed. The colors are excellent and the driver is outstanding. The composition is very good although I might like to see the bottom of the tire.

    I think you may be the only one who knew I panned it. Lucky to move a right speed. Yes, I know the tire but considering the spur of the moment and the pan I was grateful for what I got. I thought of cloning the bottom of the tire but I know it wouldn't look right. Thanks for your review.

Excellent image Paula, you have captured the movement extremely well with great composition, focus and colour. Interesting notes add to overall post.

This single shot tells a whole story of danger, action and intensity. The capture of the truck frozen in time with the background whizzing by is a great capture. The sharp colors and contrast with the scene is show stopping quality. Great capture of a fleeting few seconds of life happening in the Big Apple.
