I realize you're not disparaging the shot, just indicating a personal preference. I've shot hundreds of razor sharp pans, but I'm always delighted when I achieve one where the subject has a bit of vibrant energy. An attribute that is certainly true of Frank's post. I once went just for the clean shots, but I came to realize that many prefered something with more of an edge. Viewer preference eventually led me to reconsider. Now, I'm a big fan of pans where the subject is alive and breathing. The shot below is from my own work. The PhotoNet audience seems to like it. http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=1543007&size=lg
