Thunder Mountain *
by Shay Stephens

California

Tearing around one of the corners at Disneyland's Big Thunder Mountain ride. The speed was great enough that 1/50th of a second was enough to give a decent amount of motion blur.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM
f/5.6 - 1/50th - ISO 100 - 16mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Shay, I really like how you composed/croppped this to have the ride entering and exiting the frame along a diagonal. Great sense of motion here with good detail because of your technique/settings. I also like the play of light and shadow. Well taken, fun, & very realistic. MFC

Great shot, Shay -- surely life in motion! I like enjoying this vicariously because I could never get on one of those things. Helen
