I have already received email asking me how this image was taken. There is no special Photoshop filter at work, nor did I mess with the zoom lens focal ring - the car did all the zooming for me. At 28mm (should have used the 20mm for a bigger effect), the car 'explodes' into the image at 60mph, while I was standing only 2 feet away from it. The problem was to pan the exact center of the viewfinder with the helmet of the driver. This image is the best result of 2 rolls of film I took in that position. Next time in a corner like this one, I'll use the 20mm for even more radial blur. One more of those "film is cheap" pictures.
